This past year a lot of the traditions of being together had to be put on hold, so we had to find different ways to feel festive and rooted. One of my favorite ways is through family recipes and comfort foods. Unique flavors and seasonings that make your family’s fare special.

This cowl is designed to be a choose your own adventure! You may knit all 10 charted motifs, or you can repeat 2, repeat 1 over and over or create your own path. You can easily adjust the height and create the perfect cowl height or maximize the yarn you are using. Have fun! Make it unique to you!

Thank you so much for your support of Spice Blend. Please use the tag #spiceblendcowl to share with me on instagram! Seeing your yarn choices and watching your progress is the greatest joy. Happy knitting!
