Two color cowl inspired from a visit this past summer to the Pacific Northwest. The design began to come together while sitting at a wine tasting room with two new knitting friends. We had known each other from a distance, but during the visit West beautiful friendships truly blossomed.

Knit in the round using two colors. The little bobble details are nupps, fun and addicting in the project. Knit in worsted, dk, or a mix of both - maker’s choice!
