This modern cowl has beautiful forest-inspired fair isle detail and a lovely moss (seed) stitch border along the bottom and top edges.

The cowl is knitted in the round with 3.5mm (US 4) circular needles (length 40cm (16”)) and 3mm (US 2.5) circular needles (length 40cm (16”)). It is knit from a moss stitch edging, followed by fair isle worked in stockinette (knit all rounds), and then a moss stitch edging before the cast off edge.

The blocked measurements of the cowl are length 10.5” (26.5cm) and width circumference 38” (96.5cm).

The cowl is knit with sport weight yarn, 4 skeins of Road to China Light, The Fibre Co. (65% alpaca, 15% silk, 10% camel, 10% cashmere), 50 grams/145 meters (159 yards), in:

• 2 skeins (290m (318 yards)) of Pearl Grey (Main Colour)
• 2 skeins (290m (318 yards)) of Cobalt (Contrast Colour)

There are endless potential great colour combinations in this luxuriously soft yarn!

The pattern includes a chart for the fair isle sections of the cowl.

Hope you enjoy the pattern! Happy knitting!
