If you have some lace weight yarn but you’re not quite ready to create a whole project with it, why not try pairing it with another yarn? The lovely Kraeo Mama Bear DK and Kid Mohair are a dream together! The two color ways: Winter Sky and Fire in the Sky are complementary too.
I created this cowl to be beginner friendly and chock full of texture! But I also knew the colors would really shine if there was some simple stockinette element to it so I was sure to include that too.
