This delightful unisex cowl/circle scarf is made with a textured cotton blend yarn. The stitch pattern looks great from both sides, making this a reversible project. The eyelet pattern combined with the lightweight cotton yarn makes this a perfect cowl for all seasons. Wear it wrapped three times for warmth in cold weather, or looped loosely around your neck in warm weather.
