Morning Sunlight is the kind of knit you can pick up at the end of a long day and work on without thinking too hard. It’s made with just knit and purl stitches, and an easy two-round repeat with lots of squish and texture.

Knit it in the round for a seamless finish or flat and seam it closed, whichever you prefer.

Worked in bulky yarn, it comes together quickly, so it’s perfect for last-minute gifts or a cozy weekend make.

Wear it long and loose wrapped once, or loop it twice for a snug, cushy cowl that keeps the chill away.
