You’ll need 1 skein in the rich shade Bark.

You will also need US#4/3.5mm circular needles for this project, along with a cable needle (optional), a large-eyed blunt needle, and a stitch marker to help keep your place while you knit.

Skills Required: This pattern is designed for those who are comfortable knitting in the round. You should also be able to follow charts or stitch pattern instructions, work simple cable techniques, and execute a two-color cast on.

Stitches Used: The pattern includes exciting stitch techniques, such as 2/1 RCp - which involves slipping two stitches to a cable needle held in back, then knitting two contrast color stitches followed by two main color stitches from the cable needle. You’ll also learn 2/1 LCp - where you hold the cable needle in front, knitting two main color stitches followed by two contrast color stitches. The pattern features 2/2 RC and 2/2 LC techniques as well, perfect for adding intricate designs to your cowl.
