Finished Dimensions:

13” x 6.5” (23” x 11.5”) 33” x 16.5” (58.5 cm x 29 cm) when lying flat. Perfect for draping around your neck or styling as a statement piece.

Yarn:

For this project, you'll need DK weight yarn, approximately 335 yards for the short version and 775 yards for the long version. In the photos, the yarn used is Malabrigo Arroyo in the vibrant shade of Indicieta for the short cowl. For the long version, Mrs. Crosby Hat Box yarn in Squid Ink, Greystone, and Crème Fraiche provides a stunning and sophisticated color palette.

Needles:

Utilize US 5 double-pointed needles (DPNs) or the same size for the Magic Loop method. You'll need a 16” circular needle for the shorter cowl and a 37” circular needle for the longer version. Ensure your knitting needles are comfortable and suited for a smooth knitting experience!

Finishing:

This cowl is knit modularly, which means you'll be cutting the yarn between each triangle module. Expect to have a number of ends to weave in. This not only helps to secure your work but also allows you to make the triangle points neat and tidy, adding a polished finish to your beautiful creation. Be prepared for a rewarding project that brings together both creativity and technique!
