Kira K. Designs Black Diamond Cowl PDF

Cowls are great alternatives to scarves, keeping your neck and shoulders warm without dangling scarf ends to get in your way, and the Black Diamond Cowl from Kira K Designs is no exception. This beautiful lace pattern gives an organic feel in a thick/thin or handspun yarn, or a crisp look in a smooth yarn. It’s a great project for a luxury yarn since the yardage required is minimal. The lace pattern is charted and written out.
