Dueling Diamonds Cowl Free Knitting Pattern

Say hello to the Dueling Diamonds Cowl free knitting pattern! A subtle hint of texture and design throughout the coziness stitched together with your favorite DK yarn.

I love when simple stitches can be used to create an interesting and eye-catching result. The Dueling Diamonds Cowl has a center textured panel that is reminiscent of a trellis design.

Use your knitting skills to make a whole matching set! There are matching Dueling Diamonds Beanie and Dueling Diamonds Infinity Scarf free patterns with the same motif for an easy, coordinated look.
