I always find I gravitate toward cowls when I’m looking to knit something to warm my neck. They’re really easy to wear, over a shirt or under a jacket with few adjustments. I’ve included some decreases in the last few sections to help keep the cowl close to the neck. I love the vintage look of this cowl and hope you do too. Taimana being the Māori language translation for Diamonds which I’ve featured throughout.

Along with written instructions, charts are also included for the lace sections.
