This cowl was designed during one of the most stressful and exciting times of my life, when our family decided to move from Kentucky to Wisconsin. It was not a decision that was made lightly on the part of my husband or myself. It was not at all well received from my family who lived in Kentucky but was greatly appreciated by his family who were all in Wisconsin. It is representative of the travel, over 800 miles, from there to where we are now! In our forever home place.
