Notes
**When using Lion Brand Woolease Thick and Quick, the yardage is different for some of the colors. If you pick a SOLID color, it’s different than a MIXED color yarn. This will affect the width of your cowl.
Solid colors: 106yds
Mixed colors: 87yds
**Your first stitch and last stitch will be the same. This does not affect the look of the pattern at all. Use the stitch marker to keep track of where you start each round.
