Based off the classic Cozy Chunky Cable Cowl from 2014, this updated version features stunning cables and a longer length, making it the ideal infinity scarf for the season. The beauty of the different sized cables can be seen more clearly with a thick yarn, plus the added weight makes it extra warm. This cowl can be worn long or wrapped for even more coziness.

This cowl, perfect for the cold Midwestern weather, is covered with fun, colorful non-traditional fair isle designs, such as checkerboards, diamonds and chevron stripes. Based off of the classic Southwestern Splendor Colorwork Cowl, this project is worked in the round with deep, ribbed borders in a 2×2 rib. It can easily be made longer by casting on more stitches and the changing patterns and colors give the knitter enough of a challenge to keep it interesting.
