The Fall Roving Necklace is a fun alternative to a fall scarf when there’s a chill in the air. I-cord strands replace traditional knitted fabric and two buttons complete the look. This infinity cowl knits up quickly using soft bulky weight yarn - I’ve chosen soft wool roving for this project, but any bulky yarn will work. Easy to adjust the circumference of the cowl for a custom fit.
