Segment Cowl

Segment Cowl is a fun yet functional cowl that comes in two sizes - a slightly shorter size and a slightly taller size. Using multiple overlaying colors of Worsted-weight, this throw-on-and-go style is also a good template for using up any stashed half and partial skeins you'd like to see used together (just keep in mind fiber content consistency!)
