Nora Ephron famously hated her neck, so I imagine she would like this soft, chunky cowl, which snuggles the neck in warmth and style.

Holding the two yarns together enhances the look and feel of the finished project, giving it extra warmth and a soft halo.

The basketweave crochet stitch used to make this cowl is done with front and back post double crochet. The pattern includes a link to a tutorial on this technique.
