Norah Cowl Knitting Pattern

The Norah Cowl is a gentle knit, inspired by Argentine avant-garde artist Norah Borges. Just like her paintings, it is dreamy, comfortable, and welcoming. It features a handsome braid cable stitch for a romantic modern look. And the lovely Comfy Cashmere Merino Wool yarn gives this piece a glorious bounce and softness. It’s a wonderful gift that suits just about everyone: knit one for yourself and then more for your family and friends! This cowl is knit flat, turning your work at the end of each row.  You can choose between a Provisional Cast-On or work a less complicated Long Tail Cast-on. If you do the Provisional Cast-On, you will have to bind-off using the 3-Needle Bind-Off method. If you do a Long Tail Cast-On, you will use the Standard Bind-Off method, and then seam both ends together. This listing is for the pattern only.
