Wired Cowl
Worked in the round with increases on either side of the cable, this cowl is cozy and bandana-like. It gives you the look and warmth of a triangular shawl without the worries about it staying on. Short stretches of slipped stitches make this a fantastic pattern for a yarn with very short or speckled colour repeats
There’s a matching set of fingerless mittens, too!
