Knitted Cowl - a creation, not a wreak

Knitted Cowl.


Self designed. Charisma Brand medium weight yarn, in "Lake Shore" colour

Size 7mm or 8 mm needles. Cast on 102 stitches to begin on (I think) 8mm needles.

This made the long edge 29 inches.

I worked the RS: 12 stitches of Stocking stitch, 84 stitches (for the brick/checker pattern 4 stitches Knit, then purl. Last 6 stitches were is Seed/moss stitch.

Then WS in reserve to maintain the stitches. Switch the checkers after 6 rows.

I made it approx 13 inches long then changes to a Rib knit - K1, P1 for the collar: 1.5 inches.

Loosely based on this pattern https://www.pinterest.com/pin/513832638710460419/
