Fun and fast, the Dive In cowl is a great stash-buster. Grab those mini-skeins and leftover bits of yarn to create a stunning, unisex cowl. Worked SEAMLESSLY from the top down, it knits up quickly (like any good cowl should), but wears like a hassle-free shawl. The Dive In cowl is the first pattern in the [Discover cowl collection](https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/discover-cowl-collection). This collection is a 3-cowl collection. The cowls in this collection are knit flat in the shape of a triangle and then joined to work in the round. Unlike traditional tube cowls that rumple into a pile of knitting around your neck, this shawl-shaped construction lets your knitting shine by creating a triangular front and shortened back. The shape is wonderful, wearable, and just plain fun to knit. All three cowls in the [Discover collection](https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/discover-cowl-collection) include: * Top-Down, Seamless Construction * Shawl-Shaped Wearability * Simple, Easy-to-Memorize Colorwork * Charts & Written Instructions (even for the colorwork) * Endless Stash-Busting Opportunities **SIZES** ONE SIZE **YARN** FINGERING weight yarn Leading Men Fiber Arts SHOW STOPPER (75% Superwash Merino & 25% Nylon, 92 yards / 0.7 oz [84 meters / 20 grams) Shown in “Rusted” (C1), “Smokey Quartz” (C2), “Tranquil” (C3), & “Nude Scene” (C4) C1: 135 yards [123m] (dark brown) C2: 90 yards [82m] (gold) C3: 65 yards [60m] (blue) C4: 60 yards [55m] (white) **FINISHED DIMENSIONS** **Neck Opening:** 20 inches [50cm] **Front Length:** 16.5 inches [41.5cm] **Back Length:** 6.25 inches [16cm] **NEEDLES** US 5 (3.75mm) 20-inch (50cm) circular or as required to meet gauge **GAUGE** 22 sts & 28 rounds = 4 inches [10cm] in stockinette flat & in the round after blocking 22 sts & 28 rounds = 4 inches [10cm] in colorwork motif in the round after blocking **TOOLS** 4 stitch markers & tapestry needle **SKILLS** knitting flat, knitting in the round, garter tab cast on, stranded colorwork
