About:
In Irish, the word Cosan means path or walkway. When I saw that definition, I knew this cowl needed to be named the Cosan Cowl.
This two-color, colorwork cowl has textured chevrons that are dotted with purl bumps. They meander up and down throughout the cowl, like the rocky walkways of Connemara, a region in Co. Galway, Ireland, do.

Much thought was put into making this cowl a relaxing experience for you. Colorwork charts are offered in both light on dark and dark on light so that you don’t have to try and switch them in your head.
This colorwork cowl is a fast and engaging knit, that you will not be able to put down. You will be saying, ‘just one more row’.

Designed in two colors, this worsted-weight cowl uses only 130 yards of the main and 90 yards of the contrast, which means you can make more than one cowl from two contrasting skeins of yarn. It’s easy enough for a confident beginner knitter but engaging enough for an advanced one. It’s a quick stash-busting project available in one size.
