Fading Guernsey Cowl

A top-down bandana-style cowl knit entirely in the round, with added shawl-like shaping to create a point at the centre front. The simple bands of texture are used to showcase a slow and subtle gradient. Classic textures found in Guernsey sweater patterns make for a fun and quick knit that you'll want to have in several colours! **Materials** Simcoe Worsted by The Blue Brick 80% Superwash Merino Wool, 10% Cashmere, 10% Nylon
