A popular knitwear designer shows you how to knit a cowlette using a foolproof formula—accessible to all skill levels.

Whether you’re looking for warmth on a winter day or an elegant and airy accent for a summer evening outfit, there’s a cowlette for that! In Knitting Cowlettes, designer Safiyyah Talley celebrates the accessory that combines the beauty and drape of a shawl with the easy wearability of a cowl (no knotting or pinning required). Talley introduces knitters to the cowlette’s unique construction—which begins with traditional shawl shaping before being joined in the round—as a gateway to her 23 unique patterns and showcases the cowlette’s endless versatility with a wide range of sizes and styles. If you’re a more adventurous knitter, Talley provides a foolproof template for creating your own gorgeous cowlettes, walking you through the entire decision-making process, from yarn choice and setup to sizing, shaping, and finishing.

It was when she explicated their usefulness that I was charmed. Talley makes a convincing argument for the cowlette, and her guidance along the way should allow any knitter to on this journey with her. With the knowledge and guidance in this book, we may all be giving or getting cowlettes soon!"
