Quick Mistake Rib Cowl Using Rowan Big Wool
The Design
Quick and clever, this cowl (a free pattern) is worked in the soothing rhythm of K2, P2 ribbing—with a simple twist. An extra stitch ‘oopses’ the next row over by one for mistake rib—a much more complex texture than the simple ribbing instructions imply!
The Quick Mistake Rib Cowl is a fast, fun knit in Rowan Big Wool—a woolly mammoth of a yarn that makes simple stitch patterns really pop! Spun from 100% merino wool, this yarn’s bulk belies an easy-to-work-with softy that knits up any project in a jiff. You’ll find this cowl flies off your needles and around your neck in no time.
