Planned pooling solid and speckled stripes are worked flat in stockinette stitch, shifting with narrow stripes along the sides alternating with larger rectangles down the center. Rolled edges along the long ends can be blocked open to create a wider cowl, or left to roll as they will. The short ends are invisibly joined so that the cowl can be worn either side out.
