Patches Cowl

I have been asked to make just the cowl pattern available, so here it is. Enjoy the free pattern through October 8th~ Grab both (the matching scarf & cowl) patterns in one **[HERE][1]**. And all my patterns are 35% off for the season~ Just add to cart and see the price drop. Grab just the cowl knit kit here **[HERE][2]**. Grab both, the matching scarf and cowl knit kit **[HERE][3]** and this one ships free in the US right now. Then join my **[Annual Holiday KAL][4]** for fun & prizes. The fun to knit, colorful Patches cowl is knitted with one of our fabulous variegated Lustrous skeins held double throughout and a richly textured mini skein (included in the knit kit) as shown in the photos. The individual three squares get "patched together" with that mini skein. Knit 3 squares for the cowl in easy in stockinette and garter stitches. Knit whenever you have a little time on your hands, it grows pretty fast. Once finished, the heavier yarn creates the rich contrasting detail which gets connected with a crochet hook to the next square. It's easy and fun~ **Yarn** A single Lustrous skein in a self striping slightly shiny sport weight. 380 yards/100 grams each held double throughout the knitting and the yarn is gorgeous! A six yard mini skein of our Spots cakes infused with bits and color to create the contrasting seams not only in color but in texture. Yarns/knit kits available at **[Yarnz2go][5]** **Notions** US size 8 (5mm) needle, either straight or circular, your preference. Crochet hook size I (5.5 mm) for finishing. **Gauge** Squares knitted with the Lustrous yarn, 16 sts and 19 rows in 4" of stockinette stitch. Accents are knitted with the Spots yarn, 3.5 sts and 5 rows in 1" of garter stitch. **Techniques:** Knitting, purling, picking up stitches to be knitted in contrasting yarn, binding off, connecting squares with crochet hook (easy), blocking is recommended. Enjoy your project and consider created the matching scarf as well, winter is coming~ [1]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patches-scarf--cowl [2]: https://yarnz2go.myshopify.com/products/patches-cowl-only-knit-kit?_pos=3&_psq=patches+cowl&_psid=5c1a9c109&_ss=e [3]: https://yarnz2go.myshopify.com/products/patches-scarf?_pos=1&_psq=patches&_psid=7f609d7a5&_ss=e [4]: https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/petra-designs/4421740/1-25 [5]: https://yarnz2go.myshopify.com/
