Jeweled Cowl by Sachiko Uemura

Craft: Knitting

Jeweled Cowl is knitted entirely in the round with some bead/lace work. If you are not familiar with how to knit with beads in crochet hook method, please see some tutorials available online. Or you might want to make a beadless version instead?

Pattern updated on June 4, 2011 with a tip

To avoid the beginning side of openwork looking stretched, I recommend you twist (=knit through the back loop) one stitch before doing/knitting the first yo every round. (Sample shown worked w/o twist.)
