Scrapbook Cowl

Scrapbook Cowl is designed to use your leftovers and create a beautiful wearable ‘scrapbook’ of your previous projects. This design is knit using mitered squares, a decreasing technique that creates a spine down the middle and takes you from the full cast on down to 2 stitches.

Each square only uses a few grams of yarn so you can use lots of leftovers or just a few colors and make different placement combinations. Scrapbook Cowl is knit flat and then seamed together using the mattress stitch (a video tutorial is linked.)
