Godric Cowl
A great project for giving stranded knitting a try (no worries about fit!), the Godric Cowl requires approximately 410 yards of a main color (MC) and 100 yards each of three contrasting colorways (CC). Use a full skein of the main color, and any partial skeins of yarn you may have hanging around for the contrasting colors.
It is worked by first casting on stitches with a provisional cast on, and knitting in the round following color charts. The end of your knitting is then grafted to the cast on stitches using the Kitchener Stitch.
