NOTES:<br />
Cable Cast On – CO 2 sts using long-tail cast on. Insert right needle between the 2 sts on left needle and k1 as<br />
usual, but do not slip st from needle. Draw yarn out, making a long loop, place st onto left needle, and pull snug.<br />
Repeat until desired number of sts are cast on, including the slip knot.<br />
The completed cowl is drapey and incredibly cozy!<br />
It is wide enough to also be worn over the shoulders, creating a cowl/capelet style garment.<br />
