Spectacular alpaca yarn creates a subtle halo accenting the wonderful lace and cable pattern in this unique cowl. Clever eyelets created by double yarn overs allow you to cinch this cowl up or down to create a new look each time you wear it. Thread a complementary colored ribbon through the eyelets to add a bold statement, or knit an I-cord for a perfect color match. This elegant knitted cowl will make a stunning accessory for a wedding or special occasion.
