On the largest moon of Saturn, deep blue pools splash against the dusky golden surface of Titan. These lakes of liquid methane feed the atmosphere and the potential for life. Tides pull and the lakes ripple, like the waves and ripples of the Lakes of Titan cowl.

The cowl is worked flat, alternating stripes of garter stitch and a simple lace. After blocking, the edges are quickly whip stitched together at the back and you’ve got yourself a gorgeous bandana cowl! It’s a quick and fun project perfect for a gift or to show off a special single skein of fingering weight yarn!
