Three colors play musical chairs in this fun cowl, each striping with the others and taking turns in the foreground in sections of varied length. The slipped garter stitch pattern is reminiscent of the ridges and furrows of a freshly planted field. Wear it as a long loop or doubled for a cozy cowl, and make the Gridwork Slouch for a matching set!

Kits for the matching cowl and hat are available from the designer here
