The Winston cowl is inspired by the motif of our spirited pup Winston’s very first leash. This charming cowl is the perfect quick project for any crafter. Knitted in stranded colourwork, it features a repeating yet engaging pattern that keeps things interesting. The added lining makes this cowl incredibly soft and warm, providing a cosy layer against the chill. It is a stylish accessory and a satisfyingly fast knit, making it an ideal choice for a weekend project or a thoughtful handmade gift.
