Note: Two neckline options are now available. Both files are included for download at the time of purchase.

Happy Mosaic Cowl
It’s no secret that I love soft, fuzzy yarn. Add a little bling and that’s a bonus! Glam Haze was so much fun to work with. It’s an alpaca/mohair/metallic blend bulky, lofty, blooming strand that you can’t help but squish and cuddle.
The cowl starts off close to the neck and increases so that it could fit over your shoulders, if you like. I chose two colors of this yarn and decided on mosaic knitting for much of it. I found the rhythm of the slip stitch technique very soothing, which made me happy. Gail’s big smile helped me select the name.
I hope you enjoy it, too!
A big thank you to Gail, for modeling. She just happened to be wearing the perfect outfit!
