▲ PATTERN NOTES
These cowls are all about texture and playing with blending colors. Choose between a single loop cowl knit using two strands of DK together for a bulky yarn, or a double loop cowl, knit out of 2 strands of fingering weight yarn held together. With a panel of syncopated brioche in the middle, this cowl is as fun to knit as it is to wear, and perfect for both men and women.

Unless otherwise noted, sizes appear as Single (Double) throughout. For a great tutorial on the nice and stretchy Twisted German Cast On visit: http://newstitchaday.com/twisted-german-caston-

In Brioche, you always count your sl1yo (your slipped stitch and it’s yarn over “shawl”) as a single stitch!
