I love cowls. They are one of my favorite accessories to wear. My favorite part is that they are a loop - making it hard to fall off/lose.
Sock-Yarn Accessories has a couple of cowl patterns in it that I think you will love as much as I do.
There's
Pleasantville, a lace cowl with some nice texture within the lace.
It's written for two sizes. The small cowl is shown here, but you can also knit the larger infinity scarf version. It's a super easy project too. I think it would make a great first lace project.
Then there's
Larkspur, the cowl I've been thinking about forever:
I have been wanting to use this stitch pattern for a long time, and I also wanted a cowl with buttons. The two came together perfectly I think!
This cowl is also written for two sizes, with the larger cowl shown in the photos. What I love about it is that you can wear it so many ways - including as a scarf if you want.
I picked up the buttons from
My Garage Art. They are just so pretty! I need to make more things with buttons so I can get more.
Hooray for cowls!
