To and Fro Cowl and Mitts

Discover the versatility of sock yarn with this stunning knitting pattern for a matching cowl and fingerless mitts set. Perfect for showcasing vibrant colors and intricate patterns, this accessory duo is not only stylish but also functional, making it a must-have for your wardrobe. The short rows in this design beautifully accentuate the fabulous stripes and unique textures of the yarn, adding a touch of sophistication to any outfit.

The cowl is designed to be worked mainly in the round, beginning and ending with a cozy k2, p2 rib for added elasticity. To create eye-catching slits, you'll alternate between working in the round and ‘to and fro’ in flat rows, utilizing stocking stitch bordered with garter stitch to highlight the delightful patterns within your chosen yarn. This combination creates an accessory that looks as good as it feels.

The elbow-length fingerless mitts are worked seamlessly in the round, starting at the fingertips. After a classic k2, p2 ribbing and a few rounds of soft stocking stitch, simply work back and forth in rows to form practical thumb holes, allowing for mobility and comfort. The long ribbed cuffs are expertly shaped with increase stitches, resulting in a wider cast-off edge at the elbow—ideal for wearing either to the elbow for warmth or folded back for a trendy double cuff look.
