Clovelly Cowl

Clovelly is a simple garter and lace cowl featuring a pretty 16 round repeat. I chose this stitch pattern as it reminded me of a series of cheery interlocking rainbows, and I named it after the picturesque fishing village Clovelly in North Devon, which is beautiful even in the rain. The sample cowl is worked in size 1 for a slouchy fit and can be worn doubled over or squished up. A longer version is also given that can be wrapped twice.
