12 FREE PATTERNS FOR KNIT COWLS
When the weather gets cooler, I found myself wanting to work on a yarn project. There is something cozy about cool nights working on yarn craft. Winter is just around the bend and you’ll want something to keep you warm! Fall weekends are the perfect time to whip up one of these cowls to knit. If you’re not making it for yourself, why not make it as a gift for someone for Christmas. Let’s look at these cowls to knit!
So many fun free patterns and the possibilities are endless with the yarn and pattern choices! Use some yarn from your stash, or this is a great time to try out a new yarn you’ve been wanting to try. 🙂
