A cable-knitting dream project, the Meadow cowl can be worn single or double around the neck or draped around the shoulders. It’s so soft and light, we guarantee you will not want to take it off.

Construction Notes
The cowl is worked circularly from the bottom up from provisionally cast-on stitches, then the beginning edge is worked in the reverse direction from live cast-on stitches. The Meadow Pattern can be worked from either written directions or charts.
