When the weather turns, and the days grow shorter and colder, it’s time to stock up on warm layers. A cowl knitting pattern is a great way to fend off the first chill of winter because it’s smaller and quicker to knit than an alternative to a scarf, theses knit-cowls will keep you warm whether wearing a coat or working inside with the thermostat set low. Also giving you something to wear while you work on bigger projects…..These are knit bottom up in the round. I like double-wrap cowls. They’re nice and warm, and with two layers, you can snug one close around the neck, and let the other hang a little lower. Looks good. Feels good.
I also like a cowl that fits smoothly around my neck with no twists.
