GAUGE:

1 ‘wave’ = about 4 1/2 in. (11.5 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

dc2tog (dc 2 sts together) Yarn over, insert hook into st and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops. Yarn over, insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through 2 loops, yarn over and draw through all loops on hook – 1 st decreased.

NOTES:

1. Change to next color in Color Sequence at the end of each rnd.
2. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete st.

COLOR SEQUENCE Work *1 rnd with B, 1 rnd with C, 1 rnd with D, 1 rnd with E, 1 rnd with A; rep from * 2 more times, for Color Sequence.

COWL
With A, ch 199. Taking care not to twist ch, join with sl st to form a ring.
Rnd 1: Ch 3 (counts as dc here and throughout), (dc2tog) 3 times, 2 dc in next 6 ch, *(dc2tog) 6 times, 2 dc in next 6 ch; rep from * across to last 6 ch, (dc2tog) 3 times; join with sl st in top of turning ch. Change to B – 11 waves at the end of this rnd.
Rnd 2: Ch 3, turn, (dc2tog) 3 times, 2 dc in next 6 dc, *(dc2tog) 6 times, 2 dc in next 6 dc; rep from * across to last 6 dc, (dc2tog) 3 times; join with sl st in top of turning ch. Change to C.
Rnds 3-16: Rep last rnd, and continue to change color every rnd following Color Sequence. Fasten off.

FINISHING
Weave in ends.
