The Dessert First Cowl is a companion to the the Dessert First Mitts and Hat. The Fancy Cable is fun to work, and the knitter is given the choice of a few vertical cables working their way toward the top,
or fancy cables throughout. The cowl can be knit in a weekend, or two, making it the perfect gift or accessory. This may be considered an intermediate level pattern because knowledge of cables is helpful. If finished neatly, the cowl is interestingly reversible!
