The Forest Gold Cowl is named after the colourway of the yarn - an old gold hue with lots of nostalgia and glam. The cowl is knitted in two different textures and is worn looped twice around the neck. The textures capture the light in different ways and make the most of the beautiful combination of the sheen in Sägen Fe and the glow of silk mohair.

The pattern includes both charts and written instructions.
