So let's make a cowl! First, then, using your color A yarn, cast on 152 stitches loosely, place marker, and join in round. Then we'll move straight to the main pattern, which is a three color adaptation of Crystal and Pearl from page 266 of Barbara G. Walker's A Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns, and goes as follows:
Row 1: using color A, purl
Row 2: using color A, * k1, (yo, ssk) 3 times, k1; rep from *
Row 3: using color A, knit

Row 4: using color A, * k2, (yo, ssk) twice, k2 *
Row 5: using color A, knit
Row 6: using color A, * k3, yo, ssk, k3 *
Row 7: using color A, knit

Row 8: using color A, * k2, (yo, ssk) twice, k2 *

Row 9: using color A, knit

Row 10: using color A, * k1, (yo, ssk) 3 times, k1; rep from *

Row 11: using color A, purl

Row 12: using color B, knit

Rows 13 - 23: using color B, knit rows 1 - 11

Row 24: using color C, knit

Rows 25 - 35: using color C, knit rows 1 - 11

Knit rows 1 - 35 two times, and then knit rows 1 - 34 once more. Using color C, bind off purling rather than knitting and tuck in ends. Block.
