Ava’s Cowl is a simple crocheted cowl which derives its understated elegance from a beautiful texture and a subtle shifting of color. The lovely fabric is created by working single crochet into the back loop. And the gorgeous ombré is achieved by gradually changing one of four strands of yarn being held as the piece is crocheted. The overall effect is a timeless, eye- catching cowl that is also utterly compelling to crochet!
