The cheerful polka dot design is staggered across the central cast-on line by working an odd number of pattern repeats in each round (which, in moebius knitting, is twice the cowls circumference). Working the colorwork design as two-color double knitting removes the issues with floats that would occur if the motif were worked as stranded colorwork, in addition to producing an extra thick and cushy fabric that is perfect for keeping warm in cold weather.
The cowls i-cord bind-off is likewise reversible, so the end result of the pattern is an accessory that is equally attractive from all angles, and is sure to confound and beguile knitters who are uninitiated in the ways of moebius knitting.
