Yankee Hill Cowl

My sister-in-law, an incredibly skilled woodworker, but not a patient knitter, was lured by the luscious colors and softness of some yarn while visiting a LYS (to purchase a gift for me). As hard as she tried, she could not get into knitting. Knowing my passion for knitting, she asked me if I would make her something out of the yarn she got.
It was an honor to me and I told her I’d love to. Letting the yarn guide me, I created this cowl & matching fingerless mitts for her.

The name is a nod to where she lives, as well as her business.
