This beautiful double-thickness cowl features a stunning colourwork pattern that can be worn on either side, specially designed to neatly hide the floats. The wave pattern on one side is reminiscent of a stormy ocean, and a simple striped pattern on the other reflects the opposite – a calm ocean with occasional ripples.

Designed in two jewel-toned shades of Road to China Light, a blend of natural fawn baby alpaca, camel hair, cashmere, and silk, this cowl feels superlatively soft close to the neck.

The Almanac Series III
The Coastal Marine Cowl is part of The Almanac III Series which is an ongoing collection celebrating each month of the year with a Yarn of the Month. It is based on the original farmer’s Almanac, a nature-inspired guide to the seasons. In our first two Almanacs, we looked to land with our theme of herbalism. Then to the skies, with our theme of astronomy. Now we look to the seas.

Our third Almanac Series is inspired by the oceans to acknowledge the importance of maintaining a balanced and thriving ocean ecosystem. The moodiness of the deep ocean, the chill of polar seas, the patterns and rhythm of the winter swells, and the great migrations of sea birds were some of the inspirations behind this Almanac Series.

We invite you to feel inspired by the high seas and explore this theme with us.
