SHORT DESCRIPTION

The inspiration for Raili Cowl came from my previous designs, Raili Pullover and Raili Hat, as the same cable pattern has been used for this design. The cowl is designed to be paired with Raili Hat. It has a high turtleneck in 2 x 2 ribbing and the body is shaped with raglan increases. Raili Cowl is knitted from the top down.
