Carina Spencer Zuzu’s Petals Cowl Pattern

This gorgeous cowlette pattern is written for any weight yarn!

$6.25

Category: Tags:
All the style of a shawlette without the fuss of trying to keep it around your neck! This easy to wear cowl is designed to mimic the look of a shawl, casually worn as a scarf. The pattern starts out worked flat like a top-down shawl, and is then joined and worked in the round to the bottom edge. I call these hybrid patterns, “cowlettes.”
