Test knit begins Monday 24th February in my Ravelry group, before launch 10th of April.
Masaye means blessed in Japanese, as wearing this set of cowl and wrist warmers hopefully will make you feel. The generous cowl, adorned with a fun cross cable, can be worn folded down or standing straight and will warm your neck on a cold day. The matching wrist warmers completes the accessory wintery outfit. Masaye is knitted in the lovely wool and silk yarn Madara from Noro.
