January and February of 2015 were brutal winter months for a good portion of the US. It was a great time for knitting and wearing this super cowl. In my Ravelry group, Colorworks by Debi, (CBD), we knitted our mystery cowls. The cowl is super-tall, allowing it to be pulled up and worn as a wind-shielding hood. Or it can be folded down, exposing the contrasting lining. The cowl is also reversible. However it is worn, because it is stranded on one side and lined on the other, it is supper warm without being bulky. It has plenty of luscious drape.

Color Dominance is a major issue with this design. I have included helpful information on the topic. Please review it before deciding how to hold your yarns for the colorwork portion of this pattern.
As always, the participants interpreted the pattern and tweaked it to their own likes and needs. Some added a picot edging, some added color to the lining, and some opted to make shorter cowls. I have included many project pictures to show you some of the ingenious color and design choices the KALers made. I encourage everyone to not feel constrained by my instructions. Flap your own creative wings and make your own, unique stranded super cowl.
