Cascade Casablanca Cowl

I’ve been wanting to get some more of this yarn ever since I got a sample a couple months ago. The wool/silk/mohair blend feels lovely on my neck. I’m not much of a cowl person, but sometimes I need just a little something on my neck. Usually, I have about ten feet of scarf wrapped around it. This pattern does not have a wrong side and it’s just long enough to look good under your coat. I’m also thinking about making a hat.

One skein Cascade Casablanca, 220 yds, 100 g, color 8. Size 8 needles. Waste yarn.

Provisionally cast on 36 stitches.

Knit 36.

Repeat these eight rows until you have about a yard left. Purists will want to end with row 8. Kitchener stitch first row to last row. Weave in the ends.

Enjoy.

I realize that these are not the best instructions, but I wanted to get them down before I forgot. I know I’ll be making it again.
