The Beauchamp Cowl by Laura Chau is snuggly, warm, and a great intro to stranded colorwork to boot! Worked in either fingering weight or DK weight yarn, this is a great project to use up all those little bits of sock yarn or a special fiber. This pattern would be great for a first stranded colorwork project. The colorwork pattern is in chart form only.
