Knit in the round in one piece, this infinity cowl is worked in a neck-hugging, faux rib texture pattern. Beginning with a Long Tail Cast On and finishing with a Latvian Bind Off creates nearly identical edges that are both sturdy and stretchy. Worked in a worsted weight yarn, this piece is warm and versatile without being bulky.

MATERIALS AND TOOLS
Yarn
Approximately 603 m/660 yd worsted weight yarn
Shown in Cascade 220 Heathers (100% Wool; 201m/220 yd per 100 g/3.53 oz skein) in colour Birch Heather (9564).
Needles
One 100 cm/40”* circular needle, size 4 mm/US 6 (or size needed to obtain gauge)
*A shorter needle could be used if necessary, as long as it can comfortably accommodate the number of stitches.
Additional Tools and Notions
Stitch marker, tapestry needle, measuring tape
GAUGE
22 stitches & 30 rounds = 10 cm/4″ in Texture Pattern, after blocking*
*Due to the nature of the Texture Pattern, this piece grows and stretches quite a bit with blocking and wear. For this reason, it is imperative that gauge is measured AFTER blocking. Otherwise the piece will end up being too big. Pre-blocking gauge is closer to 25 stitches & 30 rounds. The sample measured just 109 cm/43” in circumference before blocking, and grew to 120 cm/48” after being wet blocked very gently.
