Create a very fast cowl using Caron All Day Wool by Yarnspirations. This is using split single crochet, aka waistcoat stitch. This pattern reminds me of Reindeer Freckles or spots of a reindeer. 

 

The fair-isle stitchwork features faint diamonds in this cowl's pattern, but other colours will make it pop even more. 

 

This pattern repeats every four sts in a continuous round, without any slip-stitching to ruin the look.

  • B - Primary, 1 ball (whole ball)

 

Hook: 8 mm / L/11 

 

Gauge: 8.5 waistcoat stitch and 10 rows = 4” [10 cm]

 

Size: 24” circumference by 8” wide.

      Love Reindeer Freckles cowl

      I made two of these! Gave one away and saved one for me. Be sure to measure around your neck and see that it slips easily over head. I made second one larger around.

      Freckles

      Loved how easy this was! After watching Game of wool and then doing some research on Fair Isles, I was thrilled Mikey made several different versions of a fair isle cowl: I’ve made two different ones and enjoyed them both.
