The second cowl in the herd, this one is a little more subdued than the Lotta Moo Cowl and a little bolder than the Mini Moo Cowl, you can be found enjoying an afternoon in the sunshine at the farm wearing this cowl. A mixture of stockinette, a few eyelets, slipped stitches, and mosaic knitting, you won’t have time to fall asleep standing up (no cow-tipping here!).

This cowl is shown in 4 colors, but can easily be worked in 1 or 2 colors as well. To work the cowl in 2 colors, combine C1, C3, and C4. “Farm” your stash and see what inspires you!
