I wanted to knit a quick, cute and textured cowl using a yarn I have had for a long time and make it romantic without making it obvious it’s an ode to love and friendship design.
The word “firma” is the word in Spanish for signature, and the cables on the cowl spell XOXO so I thought well this is the perfect name for the cowl. The four little letters that express a lot and go just before you sign your name when writing a letter.

XOXO,
Kam
