My cowl design made it to the final stage of a New Designs competition from A Playful Day podcast!
The winner gets professional tech editing, social media guidance, and yarn from Fyberspates. It would be an incredible opportunity.

Features of the Cowl:
-only one colour per row
-squooshy, deep fabric that doesn’t curl
-woven plaid look with simple slipped stitches pattern
-button closure so you don’t have to pull it over you head and mess your hair if that’s important
-tall enough to stand up and fight the winter wind if you want to
-could be a two colour cowl, and would be fabulous with a gradient and a contrasting solid
I would leap at a chance to reknit it in a new set of colours from Fyberspates. I have been wondering what it would look like with two greys as the background verticals and one bright colour as a pop of colour travelling horizontally. Maybe a leaf green. When I think of this colour combination, a photo of my dad’s comes to mind, this freshly sprouting field, with strong lines.
