The Coffee bean cowl is a great little accessory to knit wear and gift...
It is knitted in the round from the bottom up with two colors and a simple stranded method. You can wear it up or down, it may even look like a flower motif from some angles. Either way it is very pretty in a shorter style version shown here, though you can add about 4 or 5 rounds to it with the yarns in the kits. If you want yours to be much longer/taller you can get another skein in the main color, see the info below.
The pattern is fully written and also offers a chart for the bean motif.
The slightly blocked cowl measures 24" around and 5.5" in height.
Why not also knit the “Coffee bean” kerchief and beanie and…
what a fun gift idea they would make this holiday season for friends and loved ones who enjoy a cup of coffee~
