Easy Lace and Puff Cowl
Here’s a simple pattern for a puff stitch cowl. The cowl is twisted and worked on both sides of the starting chains. After the first two rounds a round is considered to be complete when you have worked around on both sides of the cowl. The round is then joined as normal and a new one is started.
This cowl has a lot of open spaces making it perfect for the warmer spring weather, which hopefully is just around the corner.
What I like about twisted cowls is that if you make them long enough to fit around your shoulders, you can use them as a stylish wrap as well.
For this pattern I used my Red Heart Comfort yarn left over from a previous project. I find it to be the cheapest yarn around in my area, which is why you’ll see it in so many of my patterns. However, for patterns such as this, any yarn will work.
