Long Cowl
Enjoy the patterns on both sides
Linen stitch is a reversible, which makes it very useful. A bulky weight yarn shows off the front and back textured stitches, so when you put this cowl on, the back side shows a subtle contrast to the front.

The back side of the knitted fabric has a textured dotted pattern.
Elongated Woven Cable Stitch
This is an easy woven stitch where double-wrapped stitches are crossed to make a basketweave pattern. Transferring the slipped stitches onto a U-shaped cable needle makes them less likely to fall off and easier to knit.
See pages 20 and 21 for projects using this stitch.
Point Lesson
Knit 5 rows, following the chart. On row 6 (WS), k1 (edge stitch), then insert the RN into the next stitch as if to purl. Wrap yarn around the needle twice.
Bring the double wrapped stitch through and onto RN.
Work double-wrapped stitches to the end of the row, end knit 1.
On row 7 (RS), k1, then slip 1 double-wrapped stitch purlwise to RN, letting the extra wraps drop to elongate the stitch. Slip 2 more, and place the 3 elongated stitches onto a cable needle. Hold to front. Elongate the next 3 double-wrapped stitches, then place them back on LN and knit 3.
Knit 3 from the CN. One left cable cross completed.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 (excluding the first k1 in step 4) knit two more sets of crossed stitches, and k1 to end.
Work row 8, following steps 1 to 3. On row 9, knit 1, elongate and knit 3 stitches, elongate the next 3 stitches, place them on a CN and hold to back.
Elongate and knit the next 3 stitches, then knit the 3 stitches from CN. One right cable cross completed. Offsetting the cable crosses by 3 stitches in this way creates the basketweave effect of this stitch.
Smocking Stitch
An effect like smocked fabric is created by making knot stitches in alternating positions. Working the ribbing with twisted stitches emphasizes the texture of the knitted fabric.
See pages 22 and 23 for projects using this stitch.
Point Lesson
Work 2 rows, following the chart. On row 3, purl 2, then insert the tip of RN< from front to back, into the space between stitches 4 and 5 as shown.
Wrap the yarn around the right needle and pull through.
Loop of yarn pulled through the space.
Holding the pulled-out stitch in place with your thumb, remove the RN. Re-insert the RN into the loop, front to back, then into first stitch on LN purlwise, as shown.
Knit these 2 stitches together through the back loop.
