Materials Needed

• Yarn: Fingering weight yarn, 100g (approx. 400 yards)
• Needles: US Size 6 (4.0 mm) circular needles, 24 inches
• Gauge: 24 stitches and 32 rows = 4 inches in lace pattern
• Stitch Marker: To mark the beginning of the round
• Tapestry Needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 120 stitches using the long-tail cast-on method. Ensure that your stitches are not twisted after joining in the round.
2. Join in the Round: Carefully join your stitches into a circle. Place a stitch marker to indicate the beginning of the round.
3. Round 1: *Knit 2 stitches together (K2tog), then yarn over (yo); repeat from * to the end of the round. This creates the first lacy row.
4. Round 2: Knit all stitches. This round will help to stabilize the lace pattern.
5. Round 3: *Yarn over (yo), then slip, slip, knit (ssk); repeat from * to the end of the round. This will create the second lacy row.
6. Round 4: Knit all stitches. This round continues to build the structure of the cowl.
7. Repeat Rounds 1-4: Continue repeating these four rounds until your piece measures approximately 12 inches from the cast-on edge, or until you reach your desired length.
8. Bind Off: Once you have reached the desired length, bind off loosely in pattern to maintain the elasticity of the lace.
9. Finishing Touches: Weave in all ends using a tapestry needle. To enhance the lace pattern, block your cowl gently. This will open up the stitches and give your cowl a beautiful, airy look.
