This is one of my absolute favorite Cowls to make and wear! And the 2 yarns are why - Yowza!! The 100% Baby Alpaca Grande from Plymouth Yarn Company is a Bulky weight and SUPER soft yarn. And the colors are just luscious! It's held double with a really fun yarn from Habu Textiles - a Silk Tweed Kasuri (her lace weight A-164 yarn from Kyoto). The free pattern is super easy - all Seed Stitch, knit in the round. It goes fast and it's really enjoyable watching the multicolored Habu yarn interplay with the solid color Baby Alpaca. I've made lots of these for gifts and have several color combos for myself.
