The Plummy Cowl is a perfect match for SpaceCadet’s Lyra yarn, a round, bouncy sportweight that cables like a dream. The cowl knits up quickly using less than one skein, and the cablework will keep you entertained until the end. A gentle flare at the base provides extra coverage and a refined fit. Pair it with the Plummy Mitts for a matching set!
