A little bit of 70’s flower power and a conceptual viewpoint here in this cool knitted in the round cowl sporting an oversized flower. It works up pretty fast in bulky and worsted weight yarns with a stranded knitting method in three contrasting colors. Keep yourself cozy and warm and enjoy the fun knit!

The written pattern comes with a chart and a video link on how to carry the floats in the back of your work.

Measurements blocked: 9” in height and 22” in circumference.
