Desert Poppy is knit in the round with only knit and slipped stitches. No purling required!

The unique stitch creates a gorgeous woven look, mimicking arrowheads shifting from left to right. The slipped stitches produce a sturdy, yet flexible fabric.

Gauge Swatch: Using Longtail Cast on, CO 50, join in round using DPN’s or Magic Loop. Work chart rows 1-24 once. Slide stitches off of needles and measure swatch.

Make in a cool cotton blend for the perfect accessory for warmer months.

Cowl features an I-Cord Cast On and Bind Off. Links are included in the pattern to helpful video tutorials on these techniques.

Pattern includes chart AND written instructions.

One Size - Finished dimensions: 8” tall X 11” wide.

Only 2 balls of Knit Picks’ Comfy Worsted are needed for this cowl.
