Slippy the Cowl by Joanne Seiff

This cowl has a wide yoke that sits over the top of the shoulders as well as rolling around the neck, or pulling up for a hood. Fabric is a lovely slip stitch pattern.

Accessibility statement: This pattern offers an additional Low Vision pdf option, with Arial 24 point sans serif font in all black text and photo captions. It has no italics. All of the directions are fully written out. If there’s a chart included, there are also written instructions; the chart is not needed to complete the pattern.

Designer’s description: It’s a hood, a scarf, and a fashion statement all in one! This cowl lets you burrow in on a cold day, covering whatever parts of your neck, face and head need protection. Worked in a simple slip stitch pattern, this is both stretchy and dense, easy to pull over your head but thick enough to keep out the wind. Flexible in terms of gauge, Slippy the Cowl can be knit in most any gauge from 3 to 6 stitches an inch. Experiment with length, yarn choice and color, too.
