$15, pattern is free online, Lacy Moebius Cowl
On her website, catbordhi.com, Bordhi explains, “Don’t believe the myth that twisting your join creates a Moebius. A twisted cast-on has a full 360 degrees of twist, while a Moebius has half that. And it matters, if you love grace and magic. Like any loop, a Moebius has one opening, but it has only one surface and only one edge (unlike any other loop). And this makes all the difference. If I had one word for the true Moebius, it would be grace.” Bring US 10, 40 – 47” circular needles and one skein of DK/Sport Weight yarn (50g) Learn the moebius cast on and how to knit this amazing lacy cowl.
