When the first crisp days of autumn arrive, a lightweight yet cosy cowl is just the thing. Autumn Crush Cowl is an easy knit, embracing the beauty of simple slipped stitches and the neat lines of ‘floats’ created by the mosaic knitting technique.

Mosaic colourwork is the easier colourwork to knit - using only 1 colour per row, this simple technique has stunning results.
