A simple cowl knit flat and then seamed together in the end. A very delicate striping effect is established by alternating mohair and fingering weight yarn. A large lace section has been added to break up the mindless knitting and to add some interest. The lace pattern resembles snowflakes and adds character to this otherwise dreamy looking fabric. The cowl is flanked by an i-cord edging with yarn overs and a center decrease to give it some shape.
