Description
This cowl is designed to be smaller at the top and wider at the bottom hem so that it lays nicely around the neck for ultimate warmth. It is long enough to be pulled up over the head to act as a hat and cowl – all in one – keeping your ears warm AND your neck!
This pattern also includes video tutorials and has suggestions on how to make it a bit bigger or smaller if you really want to adjust it.
