Bubblewrap Cowl

This beautifully designed cowl is primarily knitted in garter stitch, seamlessly incorporating increases, decreases, and short rows to create a stunning three-dimensional effect. It begins with a provisional cast-on, ensuring a clean edge, and is knitted flat before being joined invisibly by grafting in garter stitch, allowing for a polished and professional look.

To successfully complete this eye-catching cowl, you will need a few essential knitting skills. These are:

• Provisional cast-on (CO)
• Basic increases and decreases, specifically knit front and back (kfb) and slip slip knit (ssk)
• Grafting in garter stitch to finish your project smoothly
• German short rows, although the pattern also provides an explanation on how to modify it for traditional wrap and turn short rows if preferred

This knitting pattern is designed to guide you every step of the way. It includes a detailed stitch-by-stitch version for beginners, alongside a more concise version that offers helpful tips once you’re familiar with the technique of creating each bubble. To further assist you, the pattern features a schematic detailing bubble placement and an easy-to-follow chart for knitting the bubble itself.

Whether you’re looking to expand your knitting skills or create a gorgeous accessory for yourself or a loved one, this cowl pattern is a perfect project. Explore the joy of knitting with our free and paid patterns, and embrace the creativity that comes with every stitch!
