Box o’ Chocs is a worsted weight, colorwork cowl inspired by the look and textures of chocolate truffles and the boxes they come in. This pattern can be worked in two or more colors, but only two colors are ever used at any given time. And since it’s worked in the round and seamed closed, you don’t have to worry about hiding your yarn ends or floats making it a deliciously easy first colorwork project!
