The Simplest Cowl

Rowan's newest yarn, Kidsilk Haze Trio, takes three strands of their iconic Kidsilk Haze and spins them together into one of the loftiest, softest bulky yarns you will ever see. The colorways are subtly marled creating a play of light and dark in its fuzzy, silken loveliness. We wanted to create a pattern--perhaps pattern is too grandiose a word--to highlight this amazing yarn while keeping it simple.

What's simpler than a cowl, knit in the round from a single skein of yarn?


The Simplest Cowl

Yarn: 1 skein Kidsilk Haze Trio
Needles: US 10.5 (or larger for a looser cowl)
Sizes: Approximately 11”x30”

Cast on 100 stitches.  Join to work in the round, taking care not to twist. Knit until approximately 2 yards of yarn remain. Bind off and weave in ends.

We weren't kidding when we said simple!
