Hoot and Collar


I found the perfect Owl Cowl on Pinterest and when I saw it I knew I needed to knit it.  So I wrote the pattern out if anyone wants it here you go.

Abbreviations:
BO = bind off
C4B = Cable Four Back; Worked over 4 sts. Place the first 2 sts on cable needle, hold in back of work, K2, then K2 from the cable needle.
C4F = Cable Four Front: Worked over 4 sts. Place the first 2 sts on cable needle, hold in front of work, K2, then K2 from the cable needle.
K = knit
P = purl
sts = stitches
SS = Seed Stitch K1 P1*Repeat then P knit sts and K purl sts

Cast on 16 Stitches

Knit 10 rows of seed stitch
