Skybridge Cowl - PDF Knitting Pattern

This cowl features a few landmarks from our annual visit to Rhinebeck, New York—the rippling waters of the Hudson River reflecting the sky, the soaring span of bridges, the falling autumn leaves, and occasional raindrops.

Knitting it up is an enjoyable little journey of its own, as you create these features in two shades of a luxurious cashmere and silk yarn.
