What can I tell you about this Arrow Cowl Pattern?
- It is better seen using two colors, but if you use only one, it gives the pattern a great depth
- I used a very soft yarn so the bulkiness of the arrow pattern pops up and feels great on your neck
- 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
