Felting sets this easy, garter stitch cowl apart by creating a soft, rustic fabric. Knit in rows, the piece is later felted and cut, giving it a natural look that pairs brilliantly with today’s most popular styles. Add some charming buttons to fasten the cowl and put your own spin on this timeless design.
