Why wait ?
This pattern is available as a
free Ravelry download
Originally designed for Malabrigo March 2018 using Rasta, but you can use any yarn.
1 skein of Rasta + 2 hours = 1 cowl
no need to wait long to wear those gorgeous colours ! ♥
Designed for almost instant gratification - no need to swatch and the instructions are written so that you’ll use all the yarn, but won’t have to worry about running out.
It’s also designed to be reversible - I really like the woven look you get with the “WS”.
Gauge isn’t critical because you adjust the size as you knit.
Note about how to position for wear - it’s designed to be worn with the top bit folded under (see photo #1)
Many thanks to the testers:
