Flippable

This pattern is for any weight yarn! A buttoning cowl, in a squishy reversible stitch pattern which plays very nicely with variegated yarns, and makes striping look like stranded colorwork!

Flippable is perfect for an adventurous beginner knitter, wanting to make something that may look harder than it really is, since it's actually no more difficult than 1x1 ribbing, and maybe learn a couple of new things. The trickiest part of this pattern is the one-row buttonhole (it isn't really that hard, but may be a step above beginner level), which you can skip if you'd like, and close the cowl with a shawl pin or brooch instead.

Although the samples are all fitted sizes, this piece can be made any size you like - your cast-on number determines the length (or circumference, around your neck), so cast on as many as you want, going much longer for a big, loopy cowl instead of a fitted style.

Flippable can be made in any weight yarn, and the fabric will be about the thickness of two pie
