Corazones Cowl

This cowl pattern is an introduction to colorwork knitting. If you are looking to practice this technique, the super bulky yarn and the repetitive pattern with shorter floats will provide the perfect occasion to do so. The construction of the cowl is bottom up. After casting on the required number of stitches for your size, the bottom edge will be worked in 1x1 rib, then the body in pattern and we finish with a top 1x1 rib. The pattern repeat is a multiple of 8. The pattern is written in US standard terms and includes 3 sizes. It is recommended for intermediate knitters.
