The Owl Cowl & Mitts are knit using stranded colorwork. Each piece is cast on and worked in the round with two-color corrugated ribbing before beginning the owl motif (charted instructions only). The cowl finishes with another section of corrugated ribbing while the mitts use k1p1 rib and have an afterthought thumb.
