The First Wave Cowl is all about effortless texture. Worked in the round, this design pairs a clean, approachable cable pattern with squishy garter stitch for a look that’s timeless and wearable. It’s the kind of cozy layer you’ll slip on for cool mornings and keep on for long walks.

This cowl is worked in the round, in a simple cable and garter pattern with 2 × 1 ribbing at beginning and end.
