Yuletide Forest Cowl

This cowl is the perfect project to knit inside on a cold winter’s day, looking out at the leaden sky. Once it is finished, it will keep your neck warm with snowflakes and bare branched trees as you take a walk in the winter woods.

Yuletide Forest is knit in the round from the bottom to the top. This pattern does contain some longer floats.
