Hoorah! The last pattern in the Great Cowl KAL. Scarf + cowl = scowl. I really like infinity cowls, and I also love unnecessarily long scarves. Who says you can’t have both? Knit flat, this scarf features optional buttons, allowing it to be wrapped up and worn as a cowl. This clever little project incorporates textured motifs to bring out the tonal colors in semi-solid yarns without obscuring them. Add some versatility to your wardrobe with the multi-purpose project!

So excited to get going! This has been an awesome KAL, Liz. You put a lot of work into it and it shows. thank you!
I so appreciate all the work you have put into this KAL. The patterns are fabulous and I have had so much fun knitting them. The brioche stitch, short rows , and RTs and LTs were challenging but learned lots. The video was a perfect (cat and all) and a good reinforcement. Your patience is amazing; I do not know how you managed everything and your job. Thank you again.
Thank you so much!!! The patterns have been amazing! Thank you for all the time you have put into this!
This has been my first KAL and have enjoyed it and the patterns very much. Great job.
Hi Liz,
I enjoyed the cowl KAL immensely. It was a great way to knit up some of my stash. I finished the first four but did not get to do the Blueberry Scowl (the one I was looking forward to most) because I had appendicitis and was in the hospital. The doctor said that I walked around for a week or more after it burst. So my great prize at the end is that I am still here, alive but not kick’in very much yet. Thanks be to God1
I really like your patterns. The first one that I knit was the Traveling Woman Shawl for a friend. I liked it so much that I have one on the needles for myself. Again, thanks for a great KAL.
