Hidden Falls Cowl PDF Pattern

Moebius style cowl knit in a tube, twisted once and grafted together at the end. With this type of cowl all the floats are hidden on the inside and it is very easy to style.
 
Knit with worsted weight yarn, this is a fun piece to mix and match colors, use up those scraps or mini skeins in your stash.
 
Hidden Falls is a great cowl to show off your colorwork skills.
