Glorious colorwork knitting, easy-peasy! Slip-stitch mosaic knitting with two colors makes your knitting look complex, but you’re only working with one color in each row. The Slip Away Cowl introduces you to five slip stitch patterns, knit flat. You can choose to use any or all of these stitch patterns to make this cowl uniquely yours. We’ll begin with an optional provisional cast on, and talk about ways to finish (3 needle bind off, seaming, or grafting). You’ll also learn a nifty knit-in I-cord edging to keep your selvage edges tidy!
