Catawba Falls Cowl is knit in the round featuring the popular fan and feather pattern updated with an elongated stitch for a more open effect.

Estrellita’s bit of sparkle makes this cowl perfect for dressing up your favorite jeans and t-shirt or adding to your little black dress. And if the weather turns chilly, it is wide enough to pull down over your shoulders or wrap around your neck twice.
