Notes: Customize the cowl you’ll love!
I used a four skein mini set and started with two colors then switched to a different two colors after I knit 5 repeats of the colorwork pattern. If choosing to use two colors, divide the total yarn yardage/meterage in half. You can also use up scraps by making each wave a different color! You can adapt the pattern for a yarn weight by casting on a multiple of 12 (so if it’s a worsted or bulky, 108 sts). Take your st count (if 4 per inch, multiply that by how many inches you want the cowl to be, find a close multiple of 12).
The pattern works well if the colors are highly contrasted, you want to see the waves!
