The Astri Hat and Cowl is a bewitching and glittering set inspired by the Nordic term “Astri,” which means star in Swedish. This enchanting set calls for 2 skeins of contrasting colors in DK weight and cleverly reverses the colors for the hat and cowl to keep the yardage down to just 2 skeins of yarn. It’s a celestial-inspired project that’s sure to sparkle and shine!
