“I love a quick and easy project and this cosy cowl can be made using just 1 100g skein.  Using just a few basic stitches to create a fun wavy pattern. I thought this design was a great way to showcase the different colours and love the gradient effect you get with this yarn. I hope you enjoy hooking up this simple winter accessory.”
