All yardage is approximate and depends on how wide you knit your cowl, and if you decide to add more stitches for a looser cowl. This cowl fits loosely around the neck, but does not hang or drape in front. It is appropriate for men, women or children. To make your cowl so it will drape more, add stitches in quantities of 3. This pattern is pretty forgiving, so it can easily be made longer and wider. Experiment...have fun.

Ribbing pattern: *P1, K2* around

Cubitz pattern (3 stitch repeat): 
Rnds 1 & 2: knit
Rnds 3 & 4: *K1, P2* around


*Pattern is written with sport weight counts first, then worsted and chunky in ( ).
