Gnstructions
Cast on 20 stitches. Knit every row until 22" long or until you have 3-4 yards left. Bind off. Cut yarn leaving 18" tail. Thread long tail on a yarn needle. Go through last stitch on needle to close. Now sew the bind off edge to the cast on edge to create a circle. Weave in and trim loose ends. If the seam is more noticeable one side, make that the inside of the cowl. Yarn used: 1 skein 100% Merino wool from Uruguay, 50 grams, 100 m/109yds
