Instructions
So let’s make this cuddle-tastic cowl! First, then, using your size 15 needles, cast on 18 stitches provisionally. Then, transfer work to your size 13 needles and we’ll move straight into our pattern, as follows:
Row 1 (wrong side): purl
Row 2: knit
Row 3: k2, (p2, k2) 4 times
Row 4: p2, (k2, p2) 4 times
Row 5: k2, (p2, k2) 4 times

Knit rows 1 – 6 until piece measures roughly 45”, or desired length, and you’ve just finished row 5 of the pattern. Leave live stitches on one of your size 13 needles and transfer provisional stitches back to the other. Holding wrong sides together, graft ends together using the Kitchener stitch. Tuck in ends and block.
