I love owning an LYS, I’m so grateful for my community.

Having a local yarn shop to hang out in, touch beautiful yarns, get advise and chat with other makers is a luxury, and I hope you have access to one! This cowl pattern was written for a kit meant to support LYS’s on Local Yarn Store day. #loveyourlys

I’ve knitted mine in 2 colors (50g each) of Emma’s Yarn Splendid Singles. It would be equally as beautiful in one color.

It’s a simple pattern worked in the round with a bit of twisted rib and lace. The yarn is soft and squishy and feels luxurious around the neck.
