The Vela cowl is a great transitional accessory, perfect for adding coverage against breezy days without overheating you. Knit in Pima cotton and Merino wool blend Valley Yarns Granville, this cowl is soft and smooth and showcases several slipped-stitch colorwork patterns. Vela is worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up, narrowing as you work to be closer fitting at the top while draping nicely at the bottom. Add color and style to your in-between seasons wardrobe with Vela! Slipped-stitch patterns are charted only.
