This Cowl and Hat use simple stitches to show off the beautiful color variations in the yarns. The Ribboned Stockinette Stitch, also called the Half Linen Stitch, is simple to do, it works up faster than the full Linen Stitch and has the effect of a ribbon running through the stitches. With bulky yarn and larger needles, they knit up quickly and will be ready for cold days and nights. The colors are beautiful and earthy and look good with dress coats and down jackets.

Cowl is one size, hat is in two sizes, Child and Adult (adult shown in photos).
