Knitting friends are the best friends, and this simple two-color garter stitch cowl proves it. Two favorite yarns -- a Dimond Laine hand-dyed skein and Myak’s Baby Yak laceweight – take turns creating the fabric for this classic tapered shape. The resulting cowl is light and whisper soft around your neck. Choose from two different lengths.
