Jen’s  Pattern Notes: 

• We love using this little knitting hack of knitting one round when we change our colors. This eliminates the purl stitches looking a little funky (if you know, you know). 

• We decreased by 25% of the stitches about halfway through the cowl to allow the top of the cowl to be a little closer to the neck and the bottom spread over your shoulders if you want to wear it that way!

• We gave you little check boxes to check off as you complete repeats.
