Finished Size
This cozy cowl boasts a circumference of 28 inches and stands 11½ inches tall, making it the perfect accessory for keeping you warm and stylish during the cooler months.

Yarn
For this luxurious project, we recommend using The Plucky Knitter's Plucky Bello yarn, which is a delightful blend of 55% merino wool and 45% cashmere. You'll need 2 skeins in the beautiful Oatmeal color (approximately 750 yards). Please note: The yarn will be held double for this cowl, ensuring a plush, warm finish!

Needles
You'll need size 7 (4.5mm) 24-inch circular needles and size 10½ (6.5mm) 24-inch circular needles to create your cowl. Be sure to adjust your needle size if necessary to achieve the correct gauge for this pattern.

Notions
To complete this project, gather your essential notions: a stitch marker, a cable needle, and a tapestry needle for finishing touches.

Gauge
For this pattern, the gauge is 25½ stitches and 24 rows per 4 inches in the woven pattern. While achieving exact gauge isn’t critical for this cowl, be mindful that any variations will affect the final measurements and the amount of yarn required for your project.
