Herd of Cowls
Herd of Cowls has 4 color work charts and a single written pattern offering plenty of possibilities to keep everyone you know cozy in the cold weather. Knit in the round and using approximately 100 yards of each color per cowl, just a few skeins of yarn lets you create your own herd to keep or give away.

NOTES
The colors of Berroco Ultra Alpaca that I used to knit some of the sample cowls are: #62182 Indigo Mix (A) with #6294 Turquoise Mix (B), #6214 Steel Cut Oats (A) with #6211 Duncan (B), #6281 Redwood Mix (A) with #6211 Duncan (B), #6297 Lobster Mix (A) with #6294 Turquoise Mix (B).

When working the cowl, the stitch pattern repeat is 15 stitches. Place markers as needed to keep track of the pattern.
Unless otherwise instructed, carry the color not in use up between rounds, twisting once to secure when necessary.
