Squeezebox Cowl

In Aran weight yarn, Cowls, Patterns, Worsted weight yarn by Shannon

Who wouldn’t want a squeezebox cowl? This cowl, in two lengths, is full of so much harmony: lots of squishy reverse stockinette stitch with slipped stitches, made in two complementary colors. The name is a nod to the accordion-like fabric you end up with.
