This charming cowl is a one-skein project you can make in a couple of evenings in front of the TV. The simple ribbed top gives way to a burst of short ruffle that reminds one of Queen Elizabeth I’s ornate neckpieces. Perfect for the noblewoman whose neck is always cold, this sweet and simple cowl can be paired with blouses, sweaters, or dresses whose necklines do not cover enough skin to provide adequate warmth.
