This is a soft and warming cowl made in Tunisian crochet.

The basic cowl pattern contains one version which is straight, and one which is twisted like a Möbius ribbon. The pattern suggests four sizes, but these can easily be modified for other sizes.

The variation with gobelin sts has a looser gauge, which makes it more comfortable to use as a hood.

Starry Night
Never-ending Universe.
Eternal voids with millions of stars.
Our small planet is not even a small drop in the ocean of space.
How can anyone ever think that there is no life on any other planet?
One of all the stars out there must be shining on distant civilizations.
