Raise your hand if you are a fan of stripes.

Me too.

Pick your two favorite colors to have the most fun knitting the simple stripy Dutton Mill cowl.

This gender-neutral cowl lays comfortably at the neck due to its bandana-like shape: short in the back and long in the front.
It drapes beautifully when knit in O-Wool’s Local yarn.
