Skullivan Cowl
For a complete set, find the matching Skullivan Hat.
Like its counterpart, the Skullivan Hat, this cowl is named for my youngest son, Sullivan, and features a frighteningly fun skull motif, perfect for spooky season and beyond.
The cowl is worked in the round from the bottom up in stranded colorwork framed by two-color Latvian Braids and bands of 2x2 ribbing.
