Rushing River Cowl

Pattern Notes
This pattern is worked in the round from the bottom up.
This pattern uses an I-cord bind off.
If you wish to increase or decrease the width, you can increase/decrease by 12 stitch repeats. All three pattern stitches are based on a 12 stitch repeat.
Use stitch markers to indicate repeats, if needed, to help keep track of the stitch patterns.
Thank you to my wonderful test knitters: Gelbregen , knitziwhitzi , lefti, MeliYarnCraze and SleepyMamaDragon for all their hard work and beautiful renditions of my Rushing River Cowl.
