What can I tell you about this Arrow Cowl Pattern?

1. It is better seen using two colors, but if you use only one, it gives the pattern a great depth
2. I used a very soft yarn so the bulkiness of the arrow pattern pops up and feels great on your neck
3. Once you are done. immediately you will want to make another one!

Notes

• The pattern is worked in rows
• Ch1 does not count as st at the beginning of row
• Ch 2 does count as st at the beginning of row
• You can work this pattern with one color or multiple as you wish- I used two colors
• This pattern is worked as a rectangle and sewn together to form a Cowl
• If changing colors make sure to have a changing technique and weave your ends in.
• You can decide on the width and length of the Cowl Scarf by adding chains and rows
• You can make this Cowl Scarf longer and leave it open
