ABOUT THE PATTERN
Wrap yourself in quiet beauty with this gently textured cowl, a pattern designed to soothe the mind and warm the heart.

Worked in the round with DK weight yarn, this project lets the rhythm of simple increases and decreases guide you into a state of flow.

Like wind through tall grass or the soft rustle of leaves, the stitch motif creates a meditative wave of movement; subtle, organic, and full of soul. It’s the kind of project that invites you to slow down and savor the moment.

This cowl shines in neutrals, marled blends, delicate speckles, or gentle variegated shades, yarns that let the texture speak for itself. Whether you’re carving out time for self-care or making something heartfelt for a friend, each stitch is a soft step toward calm.
