ABOUT THE PATTERN
Cozy Winters was inspired by cold, snowy winter weather in Montana: one moment it’s heavily snowing, and the next the sky is clear. The cowl features seven different sections that create a faded texture representing varying snow levels (from whiteout to flurries). This creates a fun, simplistic, and engaging knit. Once the cowl is complete, you can see the snow falling from the sky (at the top of the cowl) and accumulating on the ground (at the bottom of the cowl). Learn more about the design inspiration, knitting experience, and wearing experience here.
This pattern includes both written and charted instructions, but the instructions are separated within the pattern PDF, so you can just print what you need.

As an adventurous beginner, you will learn a new bind off technique: the I-cord bind off with the written instructions and linked video tutorial provided in the pattern.
All of my patterns include clear, step-by-step instructions and linked video technique tutorials that walk you through the pattern with confidence. I am also available for pattern support if you have questions.
