A classic, easy to knit, Scandinavian color pattern pops boldly on this warm and wooly cowl. Knit in the round, this cowl is trimmed with bold striped ribbing at the neckline edge, and a simple ridge of reverse Stockinette on the bottom. For smaller figures, the cowl can double as a shoulder wrap!

The cowls shown used almost the full hank of both colors. Depending on individual knitting tension and swatching, an extra hank of each color may be needed.
