What the Mallards Left - modular cowl
Discover the charm of modular knitting with this Easy Modular Cowl pattern featuring subtle colour variations that evoke the beauty of weaving. This project is ideal for both beginners and seasoned knitters looking for a quick and satisfying knit.
To create this stunning cowl, you will need one ball each of the following colours: 01 (off-white), 06 (black), 07 (beige mix), 08 (brown mix), 09 (amethyst), 13 (denim blue), 15 (green), and 17 (yellow mix). Feel free to use your leftover yarn from the Mallards cowl for a unique touch. This flexible pattern allows you to mix and match colours to perfectly suit your style!
The knitting technique involves using two colours held together, resulting in a beautifully substantial fabric that works up quickly—perfect for those who love to see their progress. The main body of the cowl is crafted flat like a cozy scarf before being seamlessly joined as you complete the last square. No sewing required! The finishing touch includes a charming edging worked in the round, making this cowl not just easy but also a delightful project.
To successfully complete this pattern, you’ll need to have the following skills: casting on with two ends (long-tail cast-on), casting on with one end (single cast-on), knitting, purling, and both knitting and purling three together. These techniques will give you the confidence to tackle many other projects in the wonderful world of knitting.
A special thank you goes to master box player Damian McKee from Beoga for lending his talent and modeling the finished cowl. Get ready to knit your own beautiful Easy Modular Cowl and enjoy the satisfaction of creating something unique!
