Not everyone thinks of knitting cowls for children, but they are a great kids’ accessory because they don’t fall off – and they’re perfect for going incognito!
The single-twist cables on this tube-shaped cowl create fun, geometrical flags across the surface. This plied and bouncy (and machine washable) wool translates well into cables, giving them perfect stitch definition.
