Lerwick Fair Isle Twisted Cowl

The cowl starts with a provisional cast-on and is worked in rounds as a tube. After giving the tube a half twist, the two sets of live stitches — from the provisional cast-on and from the final round — are grafted together using the Kitchener stitch. You can adjust the size by adding or subtracting 8 stitches at a time. The length can be adjusted to your liking. Please note that any changes will affect the amount of yarn needed. **SIZE:** Approximately 20 cm / 8” wide and 80 cm / 31.5” long **YARN:** Any 8-ply / DK-weight yarn.
