Bunchgrass LIGHT is a fingering weight version of Bunchgrass Cowl.

Bunchgrass is designed with two colors in mind. It features a minimum cast on and cast off with strategic increases and decreases to make the form of the cowl. The Bunchgrass stitch texture in the second half of the cowl is a tribute of the native grasses that grow in all altitudes in Colorado.

When folded in on itself, Bunchgrass Light creates a bandana shaped cowl with a double thick fabric with the added fun of a hidden color. And with the texture on one side, you may be able to fool friends into thinking it’s actually two different cowls.
