Bobbles and texture make a cozy and super warm cowl. Choose a mix of of your favorite fibers and a neutral color for an accessory that will last for years.

This cowl begins with a provisional cast-on, then is worked in the round to form a long tube. The ends are grafted together using Kitchener stitch and the circular grafting method for an invisible seam.
