in the garden cowl, three ways

this cowl is something I worked on a lot during the girls weekly piano lessons. all it is really is a couple of rounds of stockinette stitch with some rounds of seed stitch thrown in.


.



~cowl pulled to the back

.



~cowl shoulder to shoulder

.



~cowl pulled to the front

.



for the last couple of rows I did add some increases so that the cowl would be wider at the bottom than at the top. I don't even know how many increases I actually added, I just added them at whim.
I think my favorite way to wear it is going to be the pulled to the front look.
now I gotta go find something else to keep my needles warm!

  1. I LOVE it! I totally need to make a cowl. I've never done that. I think I may try something from that book you sent me as my next project. I also found a Knitting for Kids book at the library that I think you guys would like. It's by Melanie Falick.
