Perfect for fast gift knitting, the Astra cowl is easily adjusted for a custom fit. Choose contrasting colours, create a gradient or bold variation with speckles or solids, or have some fun and use up your favourite DK leftovers for the slip-stitch two-colour section. Team up this enjoyable pattern with the matching Astra mitts and Astra Hat for a cosy, co-ordinating set that the whole family will love.

Note: this pattern is a 2 for 1: both the Astra Hat and Astra Cowl patterns are included in a single PDF.
