Dirty Chai Cowl
This cowl design was inspired by this gorgeous hand-dyed yarn.
The Cream Speckled yarn is a tonal match to the Warm brown, which makes the stripes match beautifully. I absolutely love the result. The name was inspired by the color-ways themself, Chai Latte and Kona. What do you get when you mix coffee and a chai latte? A Dirty Chai!
This fingering weight yarn is lightweight and gives a beautiful drape. This cowl is easy to wear and perfect for fall or winter.
This cowl is a gorgeous accessory with a Stockinette stitch body and beautifully textured seed stitch ribbing. The pattern is a simple repeat to make striping easier. I hope you love it as much as I do.
