It is not often (thankfully) that things happen which affect everyone around the world, but the current pandemic has far-reaching tentacles and I think we all are, or will be, impacted in some way by this. For those of us who knit, our craft can be an anchor during turbulent times, and for me, knitting in the round is my “zen” knitting. I designed this cowl months ago, before the pandemic reached where I live, but I thought now would be a good time to release it. I am making this pattern free, in order that it can bring you some soothing knitting as well.

The pattern is great for solids to wildly variegated yarns. You could use one color or many. It is also written up for fingering weight, dk weight or worsted weight and is highly adjustable to your desired style/fit. As written, the cowl will be about 20” in circumference and makes a relatively form-fitting cowl. I hope you enjoy it and I hope it brings you some knitting zen.
