All Together Now Cowl (Infinity)

The All Together Now Infinity Cowl uses a **simple 1x1 chart for stash-friendly stranded colorwork**. This pattern is knit in the round, beginning with a provisional cast on and finishing using the Kitchener stitch create a seamless finish. This cowl is a tribute to the amazing indie dyers that I was able to work with during my first year designing knitting patterns. The phrase All Together Now references the Beatles song by the same name, inspired by the music hall tradition of asking the audience to join in, prompting knitters to join in sharing in the fiber community. **This pattern is written for any gauge - including worsted, sport, DK, and fingering weight yarn.** If using scraps for contrast colors, ensure you have a min. 20 yards (18 m) for each section around. **Special Techniques** include stranded colorwork in the round, provisional cast on, and kitchener stitch (grafting). **Size** Kids, Adult Small (Medium, Large, X-Large) **Finished Measurements** Height: 7, 8 (9, 10, 11) in [17.5, 20 (23, 25, 28) cm) Single Loop Circumference: 20, 22 (24, 26, 30) in [50, 55 (60, 65, 75) cm} Double Loop Circumference: 40, 44 (48, 52, 60) in [100, 110 (120, 130, 150) cm] **NOTE: Pattern comes with full modification instructions to adjust both height and width of final cowl.** **Suggested Yarns** This pattern is intended to used for leftovers, so please explore options for each weight that are in your stash! **Approx.
