Watermelon Cowl

"Watermelon Cowl is a snuggly fitted Tunisian crochet cowl that is ideal for chilly autumn and winter days. It is made of medium thick baby alpaca and merino wool that is surprisingly light due to the special manufacturing technique; the fibres of yarn are blown into a tube together rather than spun. This makes garments made of this yarn beautifully soft to touch while warm and cosy. The cowl can made in a few hours, so it is ideal project for gifting. The instructions are for Junior, Female and Male size."

NotesThe Watermelon Cowl is worked flat, RS facing from right to left, and assembled using the locking mattress stitch along the short sides of the project.
