This cowl was designed to celebrate the vibrant energy of Vogue Knitting Live 2025. With its quick and simple construction, it’s perfect for showcasing bold, multicolored yarns. The pattern uses just two skeins of Keenan Hand Dyed Yarn SW Merino Bulky, and the result is a piece that lets the colors take center stage.
The featured colorway, Bright Lights, Big City, is a tribute to the dazzling hues of Times Square—where electric pinks, deep blues, and flashes of golden light pulse with life. Whether you choose this colorway or another, this cowl brings a burst of joy and creativity to your wardrobe, just like the city that never sleeps.
