Echinacea Cowl
Designed to coordinate with the Echinacea Hat, this cowl features a stretchy stitch pattern that combines ribbing and lace for a sophisticated texture. It is worked top down and uses gentle increases to create a funnel shape, with a wider bottom that allows it to sit comfortably on top of the shoulders. An optional tubular cast-on and bind-off add to the polished finishing touches.
Though the sample uses a DK weight yarn, worsted weight could easily be substituted.
To knit this cowl, you need to know how to:
- work in the round,
- knit a lace pattern using either a chart or written instructions,
- work yarnovers,
- work centered double decreases, and
- graft live stitches (if doing the optional tubular bind off).
In addition to a yarn needle, a crochet hook and a length of waste yarn are needed if working the optional tubular cast-on, and an additional set of needles is needed if working the optional tubular bind-off.
