Combine the stunning simplicity of horizontal garter stripes with the playfulness of two−color brioche to make a truly wearable and reversible cowl. Choose from two sizes, one that drapes beautifully in a single loop around the neck and a longer version, which can be worn in a double loop, single loop, or wrapped around your shoulders.
