Quietude Cowl starts as a triangle shawl then the ends are joined to create a cowl. It features a beautiful lace spine with complimentary eyelet stripes and textured border. If desired, hang a tassel from the center of the lace. My hope is that you will get lost in the rhythm of the stitches and find some peace. When you are finished, the soft yarn will wrap your neck in a hug. Find your quietude in this cozy cowl.

The tassel is optional but I really hope you add it because it’s such a fun addition! I had never made tassels before and to be honest, really never had any desire to. I’m so glad I tried though!
