The Autumn Woods Cowl is a unique, woodsy-inspired infinity scarf that knits up quickly using a combination of 100% wool yarns in bulky and worsted weights. I-cord strands replace traditional knitted fabric and large wooden buttons add rustic charm.

Option 1 is my original design, shown in beautiful autumnal colors. Option 2 is the same cowl knit in a different color way and with vintage buttons, showing the versatility of the design just by changing the colors. Both color ways are explained in the pattern. Or…choose your own color combination for a unique look!
