Bubblewrap Cowl

This cowl is basically knitted only in garter stitch, but with some increases and decreases combined with short rows to achieve the three-dimensional effect. It is stared with a provisional cast on, knitted flat and joined invisibly by grafting in garter stitch.

In order to finish this cowl you need the following knitting skills.

• Provisional CO
• Basic increases and decreases (kfb and ssk)
• Grafting in garter stitch
• German short rows (there is also an explanation on how to convert the pattern to “wrap and turn” short rows)

The pattern contains a long stitch-by-stitch version, a shorter version that may be helpful once you’ve got the idea of how to knit one bubble, plus a schematic of the bubble placement and a chart of a bubble.
