The Emporium cowl is worked in the round and features crisp graphic chevrons, which can be worked in a myriad of playful colour combinations. The simple stranded colourwork repeats make it a fun knit, while the seamless circular construction lends a neat finish. Easy to wear and satisfying to make, it brings a subtle hint of pattern and colour to any outfit.
