Cafe Cowl

Can be worn around neck as a long, bulky cowl or around shoulders as a poncho.

Use extra large gauge Knifty Knitter, 41 peg yellow loom or Boye 40 peg loom.

Cast on using 2 pegs as 1, giving wider gauge.

Intermediate level pattern. Worked as a flat panel and then seamed together. Uses combination of chain cast on, u-knit, slip stitches, and basic bind off. Also involves moving loops from one peg to another (which is written consistent with needle knit pattern terminology). But don't worry if you don't understand pattern lingo ---this pattern has step by step instructions for each row. Also includes photo tutorial.

Pattern includes different bind off options.

Make sure your yarn has some stretch (tried pattern with Homespun and was very difficult).

Second one done using Purl Essence, Sincerely Chunky (a regular bulky 6 yarn) holding 2 strands held as 1. Added tas
