Just wanted to let you know I’ve finished the big Cashmere Cowl. I really like it and it’s just the right length and width to go around 3 times but looks great at twice around also.

The Pattern

Materials:

• Cashmere 12 ply Bulky / Chunky weight.
  • buy it at Handknitting.com
  • or (email nancy@nancyelizabethdesigns for more info or to custom order the hand painted yarn)
•  OR I can custom handspin some of this luscious yarn for you. Same email.
• 5-6 skeins of 50 grams each (approx. 300 grams) based on desired width (and budget 🙂
• 6.5mm circular needle.

Gauge:

• 10 sts and 28 rows = 4″ or 10 cm over Garter Stitch Pattern

Finished Dimensions:

• It will be 60-70 inches long
• approx. 8 inches wide.

The idea is to have it long enough to wrap around the neck x 3 with a little extra for styling. Very luscious and exotic in thick cashmere.

Directions:

Cast on 180 sts and join. Work in garter st in the round for 8 inches or desired width. Cast off
