Prarie Town is a simple stockinette cowl, gently flared to fall gracefully over your shoulders. No fancy frills, no hoops to jump through–just a stockinette cowl that marls the colors of that sunset together.

Like many of my patterns, this one is designed to showcase color. Whether you want to sling a sunset around your shoulders or fade your way through a winter morning, you be the painter; Prairie Town is your canvas.
