Foundations Cowl

I believe that a strong foundation is crucial to becoming a confident knitter! The Foundations Cowl was designed with that belief in mind. This pattern is perfect for an advanced beginner looking to reinforce familiar skills while gently reaching out into new techniques. Experienced knitters can also appreciate its simple construction and soothing rhythm, making this a great project for sitting a spell, enjoying a warm cup of coffee, and watching the stitches flow effortlessly from their needles. Enjoy the comfort of simple knits and purls, while challenging yourself to learn the German Twisted Cast-On and a Stretchy Bind Off! Helpful tutorials are recommended within the pattern. The Foundations Cowl measures approximately 25 3/4" in circumference x 9 1/8" tall. The use of fingering weight yarn makes this cowl lightweight and flowing. This is a timeless piece you can reach for again and again - whether for a chilly, autumn stroll or sitting on the porch enjoying the sunset. Because this is not a fitted garment, gauge is not crucial for success. Any fingering weight yarn will work well for this pattern. The stitch pattern plays well with multiple colors, so this is a great choice for that colorful skein of variegated yarn you've been saving back!
