Sunshine lights up the bright new leaves, the grass is a brilliant green, and the flowers finally have the courage to show their blossoms. The sun is warm on your bare skin, already holding the promise of summer’s glare. But, for now, there is a light, pleasant breeze and you don’t yet have to forgo the handknits. The vivid beauty of the day calls for a special accessory – an airy, lustrous cowl to echo the radiance of the world around you.
Massey Cowl is worked in the round from the bottom up in a lace and cable pattern, and is suitable for your favourite DK weight yarn, especially silk blends. The open pattern and lovely drape make it perfect for spring and summer. Choose from two sizes – the small is a still-quite-generous loose loop, and the large is a dramatic cowl that can also be worn as a capelet.
