This cowl is a fun and engaging knit is for anyone who loves water – mermaids, wave-catchers, and ocean dreamers alike. The cowl is knit in a tube and grafted together using the Kitchner stitch. The two sizes are indicated as Child and Adult, however, the smaller size can be worn a cozy gaiter style accessory by an adult, while the larger style makes a more open, draped silhouette.
