Dancer’s Delight Knit Cowl – Chart 3

🎄 Sleigh the Holiday Make-Along – Chart #3 for Knit Cowl! 🧶
Let’s continue to add more COLOR and say hello to Dancer!
We’re diving into Chart #3 for the Dancer’s Delight Knit Cowl!

Cowl knit with pink reindeer, red and blue snowflakes, colorful borders; “Dancer’s Delight Cowl Chart 3” on snowy blue background.

NOTES

Colorful knitted and crochet cowl featuring deer and geometric patterns, with bold red text reading "Dancer's Delight Knit Cowl Chart 3"—a perfect accessory for capturing Vixen’s Vibe. -Marly Bird
  • Use the stranded or Fair Isle technique to complete the body of the cowl.
    Read stitches on charts from right to left, and rounds from bottom to top.
  • The chart represents a portion of the project, therefore each row of the chart will be worked on repeat until all the stitches of the round are complete.
    • It is recommended to use stitch markers between repeats to keep count.  
  • When stranding a color beyond 4-6 sts, tuck the float (see Video Tutorials).
  • Do not carry colors more than 1 round. Cut and rejoin when the color is in use once again. 
  • Weave in all tails when each chart is complete before moving to next chart.
  • Some rounds include three or more colors. If you’d prefer to simplify your colorwork, you can absolutely add one or more of those colors later using duplicate stitch after the knitting is complete. No worries—this is a great option, and it still looks fabulous! 💡 Need help? Check out this video on how to work duplicate stitch.

Body

Using the stranded knitting technique (see Video Tutorials), work in Stockinette St following the color charts for Body of the cowl.

Chart 3

Knit rounds 1 – 40 for Chart. There are 7 total repeats for each round of the chart.
