Lacy Lavender Cowl

This soft cowl will look great in early spring when you need that bit of extra warmth. 
I used one skein of Red Heart Soft in Lilac with size 9 circular needles. It is knit in the round for a seamless cowl. 
Co 152, join
Row 1: (p2, k2) across
Row 2: ( p2, k1, yo, k1) across
Row 3: (p2, k3) across
Row 4: (p2, k3, sl first of 3 k sts over next 2) across
Repeat rows 1-4 until scarf is desired width. 
Bo in the 2x2 ribbing of row 1. 
Fasten off and weave in ends. 
My finished cowl is 8" x 33".  I love the lacy mock cable look of this stitch. 
Xoxo, Alyssa

      First you will purl 2 sts. Then knit 3. Take the first of the three knit sts, and pull it over the other two, leaving those two on the needle. Hope this helps!

      Do you drop that knit st. then and when you do yo in row two that will add that st. back to the correct count of 152?

      Row 2 says p2, k1, yo, k1 as the repeating pattern. This row adds an extra stitch, and it gets dropped in row 4.

    Thanks for including the close up of the pattern stitch. So many patterns don't have this, which for me makes it harder to know if I am going to like it!

    Can you use straight knitting needles or do you have to use circular ones

    You could knit this flat by reversing rows 1 and 3, but I would still use circulars to accommodate the large amount of stitches.

    When you say join at the beginning, do you mean to just start in on row 1 by doing a pearl stitch? I am very new to knitting and don't quite understand. Thank you, this pattern is beautiful!

      This cowl is knit in the round, so you have the join the two ends of the cast on. I usually do this by knitting the first stitch, then putting it back on the left hand needle, and then beginning the pattern.
