The perfect cowl for that in-between weather (hello, El Niño winter!), cozy fall afternoons, and pretty much all day (and all night) wear! The kerchief style gives some style to any outfit, while the eyelets keep everything just a little bit breezy.

This is a great 1-skein project. That was really my inspiration for designing this pattern - I wanted something wearable in this kerchief-style that only used one skein and knit up pretty quickly!

This is a pretty quick knit - because what is more fun on a Sunday than finishing an entire cowl!?!
