Product Details

This quick, warm, reversible cowl is a nice project for a first go at double-knitting. Not only is it worked in the round (so you won't ever have to follow the chart "from the wrong end"), but every even-numbered round is the same as the preceding one - which means that on every other round you won't need to look at the chart at all.

Use DK yarn in two contrasting colours, 100-150 g (200-300 m) each. I used Drops Karisma in Dark Purple and Wine Red, but any smooth DK yarn will do.

You will also need a 4mm circular knitting needle, 100 cm long, or two shorter ones.

Skills required: cast on (ordinary two end / long tail cast-on), knit, purl. It's also very helpful to know a technique for carrying two yarns, as you would in stranded knitting. My favourite for double-knitting is to carry one yarn on each hand, but other techniques will work as well.

Please note that the pattern repeat is charted, not written out line by line.
