The motifs in this cowl remind me of picking raspberries when I was young. Every chance I got, I climbed the small fence to wade through the bushes searching for the juicy berries while avoiding thorns!

This cowl has a lot of visual interest. The stitch looks complicated but is quite easy to work. It looks like raspberries and it beautifully shows off Colorful Eclectic’s gorgeous {Black Raspberry} colorway.

Gauge: 20 sts. x 28 rows in 4” x 4” (10 cm) knit in stockinette, in the round and unblocked.
