The Country Road Quick Cowl

/

I love this simple and quick cowl. It works up SO FAST and is fantastic for the fellas. I wear mine when I snowboard and need the warm at my neck but do not want the bulk of a full on scarf.

Round 2:
ch 2, hdc in the BACK LOOP ONLY,  sl st to top of ch 2 to complete round - 40 hdc  total incl. ch 2
