What kind of scarves or cowls do you prefer? Regular thin scarf? Regular wide scarf? Long, thin cowl? Short, fat cowl? Personally, I don't like feeling like I'm going to choke on anything semi tight on my neck so I don't wear scarves often but I do enjoy making them for others. The few that I have made for myself tend to be long and thin. One thing I did learn when my girls were little though is that a wide cowl made a really fun wrap for young girls. My girls would pull the cowl down over their shoulders and it was great for keeping their arms warm while wearing short sleeve dresses. Kind of a fun use for cowls! Something that I don't like about typical cowls is how they can be to wide and sit to close to my chin unless you use a drape-y yarn. The infinity style cowl helps solve that issue since you twist the foundation once and it creates sort of a V dip in the body of the cowl. To me, it just seems to help control the shape of the project a little better.
Continue below for the written instructions and video tutorial for the Mountain Lace Infinity Cowl The Mountain Lace Infinity Cowl is considered an Easy skill level and is a great project to use up all your scrap yarn!
