Need to have a quick knit on your needles for this Thanksgiving weekend? Check out these possibilities for a cowl scarf.
About three weeks ago Phyllis came to our Thursday night knitting group with the best looking cowl…simple, good looking and a quick knit. Her pattern called for a larger yarn on a size 17 needle.
The following week Debbie H. came with her three renditions of this cowl scarf. She had a wonderful knitting week! Notice the buttons…a lovely addition/embellisment! You can take any stitch pattern that pleases your eye…using the needles appropriate for your yarn cast on the number of stitches needed (gauge: number of stitches per inch x width) to create width of 5 to 5 1/2 inch….knit your pattern for 30 inches. You can end by including buttonholes, or not, join and add the buttons for embellishment. Phyllis used 1 skein of Malibrigo Rasta, Susanne used Brown Sheep’s Cotton Fleece, Debbie used various yarns from her stash and I’ve made several with Maggi’s Merino Chunky and another one with Rosarios 4 (both types available at Skein Lane Studio….used 3 balls for each one.)
To see the styles up and close you either click through the photo to the larger image or scroll to the slide show which is in larger image. Enjoy!

WOW, thanks for this. I can’t take my current project with me on Thanksgiving because it’s a Christmas present for someone who will be there. This will be perfect, although now I have to add “Dig through yarn stash” to my to-do list. Gosh, life is tough…
Jan….you are most welcome…and you always bring a smile to my face..”Gosh, life is tough…”
