The Turning Point Cowl features geometric cube and speckle designs worked in fun-to-knit Mosaic Knitting. This cozy cowl uses two or more colors of DK weight (CYCA #3) and is the finished project of the 2025-2026 Mystery Cowl Knit Along. The Turning Point Cowl is a bias-knit piece. Since the cowl is worked flat on the bias, it'll need to be either seamed, grafted, or worked as a 3-needle bind off (your choice!) to connect it. **Techniques Used:** Cast On (either provisional or long-tail) Bind Off Yarn over increase SSK decrease Slipping stitches for mosaic knitting and an i-cord border Grafting 3-Needle Bind off Check out my [YouTube video playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvBpvzWCYaNcunqLFgS7mHRysdS0DgI4z) for tutorial videos that will guide you through many of the techniques used in this cowl. **Size and Materials Details:** Finished measurements of the cowl: Approximately 22"/55 cm circumference x 9"/23 cm depth.
