The combination of big and bold striping on a quilt may be simple in appearance, but quite dramatic in the effect. The Colorblock Cowl is a quick, thick, and reversible, featuring broad bands of contrasting colors for a bold statement. For double the fun, try the double knit cowl. For a simpler process with an almost identical outcome, skip to the folded cowl variation.
