From the Knit Picks Website:

My son - the down hill skier - asked me to design something to keep his neck and face warm on the cold, windswept northern New England slopes. And the Super-G Cowl was born.

With a subtle, Nordic inspired pattern, this cowl is knit from two luxury Knit Picks yarns: Capra Cashmere and Gloss. It is a face-friendly, fashion forward, practical accessory for the active country life as well as for the city dweller.

Wear the Super-G Cowl with the dark grey Gloss at the top or the bottom. There’s plenty of room to let it slouch around your neck. And there’s plenty of length to pull it up to keep your nose and ears warm, too.

This design is appropriate for both the guys and the gals. Though designed for my son, it is modeled here by his sister and she might not give it back! Though it is lovely in shades of gray, this pattern is easily adaptable to any combination of Knit Picks’ DK weight yarns. Try a luxury yarn you’ve never played with before. Or use up that left-over yarn from larger projects.
