This top-down tapered cowl was designed as a crochet counterpart to knit designer Ann Budd’s Fading Memories Cowl 2024. On the Longest Day each year, Ann knits while raising funds and awareness to help fight Alzheimer’s disease. There are currently 6.9 million people in America living with Alzheimer’s. On Sunday, June 23, 2024, let’s stitch together to help those and their families suffering from Alzheimer’s and other dementia. $5 of every pattern sold through July 31, 2024 will be donated directly to alz.org
