Are you ready for a squishy and rhythmic stitch pattern that you can really sink into at the end of a busy day? Looking for a simple pattern that is easy to follow and will give you a beautiful and scrumptious cowl? You will love Twice As Nice cowl!
Why is this Twice As Nice? It is written for both a traditional fitting cowl or can be made extra long to double up around your neck for next level warmth and comfort. Worked in a fun and addictive stitch that produces a fabric that is just as beautiful on the front as it is on the back (double sided cowl for the win!).
Only have 1 skein of a special yarn you aren't exactly sure what to do with? With a little weighing before you begin (or by using a contrasting color for the cast on and bind off), you can make this cowl work with however much yardage you have. I love a good one skein project.
The pattern includes both charted and written instructions, video tutorials for all necessary techniques (including how to work the Triple Honeycomb stitch), as well as a photo tutorial for working the stitch. Suitable for an advanced beginner. *This pattern has been both technically edited and test knit before publishing.*

Additional Notes

-Wet blocking is very important to make the stitch pattern pop! I even like to give it a good tug vertically to help pull all those slipped stitches into their proper alignment.
