Zip-It Cowl

Zip It Cowl is knitted flat in one piece from centre front to centre front, and uses short rows to create subtle shaping. The rolled front edges are in stocking stitch, while the long edges are worked in garter stitch.

Finally, the front edge is closed with the addition of a zip or simply sewn together. Optional embellishments of a pompom or tassel complete the cowl design.

The cable panel can be worked from a chart or from the written instructions.

I used West Yorkshire Spinners The Croft Aran and Fable Brushed Aran yarns for this design. Alternatively, use a variegated yarn such as Sirdar Jewelspun Aran If you are using a different yarn to the one suggested, you will need approx 135(150,175)m in aran weight yarn.

This design uses Stitchmastery charts.
