Notes:

Reversible.
Knit top down or bottom up.
Knit using the moss knit stitch.
Knit in the round with a circular needle.
When knitting in the round you’re always knitting the right side of your work.
I knew that I wanted this cowl to fit a little snug so it would stay in place and not slide down my shoulders, and I could wear it around my neck too. I like to have options, depending on what mood I’m in. I’m 5’9″ with a 35″ bust. I made the 34″ since I wanted it a little on the snug side.
The height of your cowl depends on your style and height, so this varies, definitely take this into consideration when purchasing yarn.
