Braided Bread Cowl

Discover the beauty of this elegant cowl, meticulously designed to maximize the use of a single skein of worsted weight Misti Alpaca yarn. Perfect for both beginners and experienced knitters, this versatile piece is worked flat and can be either seamed or gracefully grafted together at the end. The stunning braided cables create a comfortable slouch that wraps effortlessly around your neck, forming three smooth and chic bands that are perfect for any occasion.

To create your own stylish cowl, you will need: 4.5 mm/ US 7 straight needles and 174 yards of 10 ply/worsted weight yarn (I recommend using Misti Alpaca Baby-Me-Boo in a beautiful Camel shade for a luxurious finish). This project is not only a fantastic way to enhance your knitting skills, but it also makes for a thoughtful handmade gift for friends and family. Ideal for chilly days, this cowl provides both warmth and sophistication, ensuring you stay cozy without sacrificing style.
