Checkers Cowl for Beginners

This cowl is part of my beginner knitter range of patterns. Others include “The easiest sock ever!” and “Simple beanie”. As a knitting teacher who has taught over 300 classes and workshops, I know what beginner knitters find troublesome when starting a new project. I have written each pattern with the new knitter in mind, with full detailed instructions and photo and video tutorial links with each step. This fun cowl uses chunky yarn and 6.5mm needles, so will knit up quite quickly. It only uses two stitches, Knit and Purl, nothing more complicated than that! I hope you enjoy knitting your first cowl.
