Notes

This cowl came from experimentation. I wanted to use up scraps of yarn and I wanted to find a way to mix colors in organic, uneven shapes. This design does both! I may have to try making another one with different yarn scraps, some thick, some thin, different textures. It’s an easy technique that provides interesting results, I dig it.

Wear notes:
The silk yarn I used gives the cowl a beautiful drape and the loose gauge in the single color sections allows enough airflow that it can be worn comfortably in warmer weather.
