The blue color of this cowl calls to mind Vissudha, the fifth chakra, the throat chakra--the chakra of communication and clarity, and also of tranquility and peace.What does communication have to do with tranquility? How does it feel to be understood, to have shared who you really are? As you crochet, think about the interaction between peace and the clear exchange of ideas.

This cowl is worked in a very simple stitch--just one stitch--round and round. It is as clear as can be, and it uses an oversize hook to create an airy, webbed effect, allowing the throat chakra’s interplay of peace and communication to flow freely.
