A catty cowl!

The Polka Scraps cowl is knit top-down, in the round - it’s a lovely, relaxing knit, with just a bit of excitement in the colourwork.

This cowl is a part of Polka Scraps - designed to help your turn your yarn scraps into cosy quick knits. It wants a DK-weight yarn, but 4-ply held double will work just as well. Mix and match from your scrap pile!

Sizes

This cowl comes in three sizes, and there’s guidance if you want to adjust it to suit you.

Circumference: 60 cm/ 75 cm/ 120 cm
Depth from brim: 20cm for all sizes

Yarn

Any DK weight yarn should work for this hat - as should a 4-ply yarn held double.

Main colour: 145m, 180m, 290m
Contrast (aka cat) colour: 30 m, 40 m, 55 m
