How to knit a cozy, one-skein cowl – perfect for gifting

Category

This cozy cowl pattern is a must-make! Using just one skein of worsted or fingering weight yarn, this project is perfect for a quick knit that looks effortlessly stylish. With a finished size of 9 inches wide by 24 inches around, it’s just the right fit for keeping snug, but you can easily adjust it for a looser or tighter feel. The simple textured stripe pattern and knit-on I-cord edge give it a polished look, while the provisional cast-on and Kitchener Stitch provide a nearly invisible join – ideal if you love those neat finishing touches. Great for knitters of all levels, this cowl makes a wonderful handmade gift!

Once you’ve got this one down, consider trying a matching headband or a pair of textured wrist warmers. They’re perfect companion pieces, and they add just that extra bit of warmth and style to your handmade set! And if you’re feeling adventurous, a cozy infinity scarf is another way to build on these knitting skills.
