Bands of stocking stitch and reverse stocking stitch make this cowl comfortably squishy, while brightly coloured bobbles and picot edging make it really stand out from the crowd.
Better still - there’s no purling, and the bobbles are made without needing to turn your work, so this truly is something that’s easier than it looks!
Size
48”/122cm long by 7”/18cm wide. Easily adjusted by changing the number of stitches or repeats.
Gauge
36 sts = 4" (10cm) in stocking stitch in the round
Yarn Requirements
For the main colour I used a full skein of SweetGeorgia Yarns CashLuxe Fine, which is 400yds/366m per 112g.
For the contrast I used 50g of Viking of Norway Nordlys. I chose this because of its long colour changes - similar yarns include Knit Picks Chroma and Lang Yarns Jawoll Magic.
