This cowl is a complement to my Charlotte Town tam, as it uses the same Faux Isle motifs; however, I used a lighter, brighter yarn here to make this accessory appropriate to wear in both winter and spring. (The hand-dyed yarn I chose reminds me of Monet’s impressionistic paintings of the gardens at Giverny.)
