Notes

I’ve knit a few of these for gifts and two, yes two for myself. I love the fact that it goes around the neck and is not pulled over the head. Think winter hair static.
Since my other one stretched out a lot, I added lace weight mohair to this cowl so that it would keep its shape. Once the loft comes up, it will be so cozy and warm, especially with the added mohair since mohair is suppose to be the warmest fiber.
