Material needed : US 7 & US 5 16’’ Circular Needles

I was originally designing this cowl for my uncle, who is a supporter of Quebec’s Federal independence. I have never been very political about my province, I still am not. But I can say that designing this piece gave me a new sense of pride regarding my roots. I am glad my first pattern ended up being this personal.
