St. Bega Cowl

Soft, undulating curves in a knit fabric are just what we need to banish the cold. This simple cowl, features beautiful knitted tucks so it sits just right, because no one likes a cold blast of wintry weather when wearing their most trusted layers. The St. Bega cowl is worked in the round, in one piece, with integrated tucks to break up an otherwise gentle knit.
