INFO
A new part of the ‘Zilt’ family is a cowl with several design options: a single loop or a double loop and a rolled edge or a ribbed edge.

Both the tube and double-loop cowls feature intricate but easy-to-knit cable patterning with a bonus: the fabric is reversible! And not just reversible, but different on each side, so that just one accessory offers two different looks.
