Jeune Coeur Cowl

Welcome to my unique and quick-knit cowl pattern designed specifically for children! This delightful stranded colorwork cowl features an adorable heart design crafted with three vibrant colors. The playful arrangement of hearts facing both up and down makes this cowl versatile, ensuring it looks fantastic whether worn upright or upside down. Inspired by my quest to keep my son warm during chilly outings, I created this cowl to fill the frustrating gap between his coat and hat. Kids often dislike the snugness of their coat's top snap, and this cowl is the perfect solution, providing warmth to the neck, ears, and chin without the discomfort. It can be styled comfortably around the neck or pulled up as a "ninja headband," a term coined by my little model. Unlike scarves, this cowl won’t drag on the ground or encourage any adventurous tree-climbing escapades—a concern every parent has, though I’m sure kids would never consider that! This easy-to-follow pattern not only keeps little ones cozy but also helps them learn valuable knitting techniques. Skills Required:
