Trails Cowl

£5
(Excluding VAT)

With textured stripes of garter stitch and slipped stitches, the Trails Cowl is an easy but engaging project to work on. The cowl begins much like a typical shawl project, but is much quicker to knit than larger shawls, and results in a cosy cowl which can be added to any outfit before heading out into chilly weather.

Finished Measurements

Circumference: 23” / 58 cm
Centre point depth: 16” / 41 cm
