Iris Cowl Pattern
This light weight cowl is a wonderful accessory to wear as the spring time temperatures begin to warm up. The worsted weight yarn makes for a slouchy and airy fit and the combination of stitches will naturally fold the cowl and create different depths while wearing it.
This entire cowl is worked in the round on circular needles with a combination of only knit and purl stitches. I highly recommend blocking it when it is finished. The cowl is meant to bunch up slightly on the purl stitches, but in my opinion, it is just a little too slouchy when unblocked.
