Pattern: A Noble Cowl
August 9th, 2008
A Noble Cowl
Finished size:
28cm/11” from cast-on to bind-off edges
Yarn:
Rowan Wool Cotton (50% Merino Wool/50% Cotton; 113m [123yd]/50g): 2 balls. Color shown: SH900.
Needle(s):
4mm(US6) 16” circular needle or dpns.
Notions:
Stitch marker (m), tapestry needle
Gauge:
22 sts/30 rows = 4”/10cm in St st.
Skill Level: Intermediate.
Note: I tend to make cowls large and droopy because I love pinning them. The stitch pattern is in groups of 15 sts, so feel free to cast on less if you want a smaller circumference cowl.
Heads up: The lace pattern goes up to 16 sts for a few rounds!
Happy knitting,

I saw your cowl on Ravely. I find knitting lace troublesome for me, but this so easy/do-able for me! I wanted to thank you for generosity. It is beautiful! (and I am tickled pink that I can do it!!)
