Across the Miles features a seamless, bottom-up construction that is worked in the round with beautiful stranded colorwork. The pattern is charted and ideal for knitters of all skill levels. Choose tall or short, and small or large, to customize the shape of your cowl. The 10-stitch pattern repeat in this project is ideal for practicing the technique of locked floats.

This project requires knitting knowledge including: casting on, knit/purl, reading charts, stranded knitting, and binding off; all on circular or double pointed needles. Using the technique of locked floats is helpful with this project.
