COWL

Work even until piece meas, 9" from CO, end with Round 4. Knit 2 rounds. Bo all sts loosely. Designer'sNote: A provisional cast-on is worked in a contrasting waste yarn so the cast-on stitches can be easily removed later. Use any cast-on method you choose just do it on the waste yarn. This waste yarn is then taken out later and the live stitches are then recovered so that the last round can be bound off together with the Co round essentially doing a 3needlecast off.
