Macha Cowl
Stranded colorwork cowl with purl stitches and garter stitch stripes in three contrasting colors in both Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk Vilje Lamull and Sølje Pelsull. The large cowl is folded down so it stands up with the stranded colorwork pattern showing on both sides and is named after the Celtic protectress in peace. The cowl is worked in the round for ease as a tube and then grafted together. Wear the cowl on its own or together with the Macha Jacket.
