This modern cowl can easily be dressed up or down to suit any style. The zipper elevates this classic tube-shaped cowl into a statement piece.

The Zippered Cowl is rectangular, and worked flat from the short end in super-simple Garter Stitch. Three strands are held together throughout to create a unique marled effect. A chunky zipper joins the short ends together and allows the cowl to be worn as a tube or a split-neck. Full photo tutorials are included for attaching and adjusting the zipper.
