Please note this is a KNITTING PATTERN ONLY with an INTERMEDIATE skill level that involves a provisional cast on, grafting and stranded colorwork. You will not receive a finished cowl. You will receive a downloadable PDF file (in English) that provides written instructions, charts, a photo tutorial and links to video tutorials for help with techniques so you can knit The Choice Is Yours Cowl yourself.
I designed The Choice Is Yours Cowl as momentum builds in our knitting community with Vice President Kamala Harris running for President of the United States. Knit with worsted yarn and featuring a unique construction, this cowl gives you the ability to wear two different stranded colorwork messages independently or together. Two contrasting colors are used to create the “VOTE” section and two different contrasting colors are used to work the “KAMALA ‘24” section. If you like, you might even decide to knit the entire cowl with just the “VOTE” section or the “KAMALA ’24” section. The choice is yours.
