This cowl stands up on its own due to the 1x1 ribbing. It is worked in the round with double increases and double decreases to create a diamond pattern. Size notes are included for both adults and children.

I dedicate this cowl pattern to all pets who have been diagnosed with cancer. My kitties are the diamonds in my life, keeping me warm in more ways than I can count, and I miss the ones that have gone very much.
