Get Cowlstruck. A fast, fun knit that’s THE definition of wearable, perfect for fall and Cowltober!

Cowlstruck is knit with a full-sized skein of DK weight yarn, accompanied by the vibrant accents of five colorful DK mini skeins.
This is the same yardage as cOWL mystery kal so if you have collected more than one kit to knit cOWL, you can use one to cast on Cowlstruck while you wait!

Cowlstruck loves to take center stage. It begins with a provisional cast-on and is knit in the round from start to finish. This tubular treasure is a tango of textures — alternating between brioche sections, garter stitch sections, and a delightful two-color tweed stitch.

You can also opt for a single contrasting skein to achieve a different yet equally striking result. And when you’re done, you have even more options! Wear it looped only once around your neck for a loose and breathable fit or wrap it multiple times to amp up the warmth.
