Stylish accessories are often the simplest and this cowl design is certainly that. It is beautifully textured, lightweight and easy to wear.

Using only one skein of DK yarn and knitted flat, this is a cosy knit that you can slip on and off and keep in your bag or pocket for when you need that extra bit of warmth.

The simple stocking stitch block pattern is broken up with added moss stitch detail and looks fantastic in both solid and variegated yarns. It is a very quick, fun project for knitters of all abilities. Great for last minute gifting, it's definitely an excellent box set companion.

But whether you knit this accessory for yourself or for someone else, it is a fabulous addition to anyone's seasonal wardrobe.

Happy knitting!
