Notes:
This is a Colorwork Cowl knit FLAT and then seamedvertically. There is a selvedge stitch at the beginning and end of each round. The selvedge stitch is knit with either Paul Newman or Sunny’s depending on where you are in the chart. It has an optional lining in Oh Dang knit in the round and then whip stitched into place once your outer shell is seamed.

Intarsia technique is used throughout this cowl. Colors that are only used in one 20 stitch square and do not continue across the row are NOT carried across the row. They are worked back and forth in just that section and carried up on the next row. You may use bobbins or just long sections (about 6 feet) of yarn. I prefer the long sections of yarn as they are easy to untangle as you go. When changing colors, twist your yarns (catching the prior square color) to avoid gaps between squares.
