Matching handwarmers and cowl in an intruiging folded fabric looks cabled but isn’t! The waves undulate gently, trapping air and keeping you warm. Worked in fine, slightly thick and thin yarn that comes in brilliant colours. Both thehandwarmers and cowl are worked flat and closed with tiny mother of pearl buttons.
