Twisting Rivers Cowl is a fun collaboration between Anne Beady Designs and Freedom Stitch Co. We are a mother-daughter team with totally different tastes in yarn but with an equal love of color and fashion. Anne loves the small delicate stitches created with fingering weight yarn while Meghan loves the big thick pops of cozy color you get from bulkier yarn. Together we planned one pattern, knit in two different weights, and included them both here for your knitting pleasure. Twisting Rivers Cowl is a fun design, easy to memorize with a look of twisted stripes all around but with no cabling. It is simple enough for a beginner, with a finished look that will wow your non-knitting friends! This cowl can be finished with or without buttons, for another touch of fancy, if desired.
