Free Knit Cowl Pattern- Joule

Free Knit Cowl Pattern- Joule

Posted by Lorene Eppolite on

 

Hey Furlers! I'm so thrilled to bring you this beautiful knit cowl. Fun fact: knitting was actually my first love so when Furls Crochet came out with their beautiful knitting needles I was beyond excited! The Joule Cowl may look fancy and complicated but it's actually extremely beginner-friendly. The flattering shape of this cowl is created with simple increases and the squishy texture only uses knit and purl stitches. I highly suggest using Furls Whims Merino yarn with this project as the z twist and squishy merino add to the lushness of it. The Joule Cowl uses only two skeins of Whims Merino.
