Loft Cowl
Pattern
A simple and snuggly cowl knitted in the round in either 4ply or DK yarn. Each yarn weight comes in three sizes so you can knit your preferred cowl circumference and depth.
Don’t be put off by all the colour changes. There’s a simple technique for adding and removing the colours which means you only need to sew in four ends!
Not a fan of jogging stripes? There’s a technique to cover that too. Loft Cowl is definitely a “just one more row” pattern that will become a winter wardrobe staple.

Yarn substitutions
Any yarn of the same m/yds per 100g. If you use a different yarn/ blend, your tension may vary and it is possible that you will not have enough yarn to complete all of the cowl.
Within the John Arbon Textiles range, the Knit By Numbers 4ply could be substituted for 4ply Harvest Hues or Exmoor Sock and the Knit By Numbers DK could be substituted with Appledore DK.
