FREE PATTERN

I wrote this simple cowl pattern on my trip to Olympic National Park in Washington. We spent the day exploring in early spring and I was so grateful to have a cozy neck warmer to help me stay toasty and dry. This is a simple stockinette design that is knit in the round. There are a few rows of 1x1 ribbing on the top and bottom just to keep the stockinette stitches from curling. This works up very quickly and I used less than one skein of Malabrigo Mecha.
