Hugs and kisses are usually reserved for the most dear to us. Our siblings, parents, and partners. Our closest of friends, and our chosen family members.
It is knit flat, in texture, stripes, and a mosaic motif. Then, joined by a Kitchener graft. The Send Hugs and Kisses cowl pattern is simple enough to allow you to think about a loved one while knitting, yet gives you some interest with interruptions of color changes, and a fun mosaic pattern.
Use this pattern for mindful, or contemplative knitting. Let the process of the knitting be as meaningful as the finished product.
