The Warren Street Cowl – named after the main thoroughfare in downtown Hudson, NY (our shoot location for this collection) – is all about texture. Michele paired an allover chevron welt & seed stitch pattern with a simple loop shape. To enhance the stitch definition, two strands of Loft are held together to create a fabric with more “pop”. Our sample combines two subtly different shades of yarn to create a soft, marled effect. A quick and easy knit with a great result – this is a perfect pattern to keep around for last-minute gift knitting!
