I’m so excited to share with you my Sweet Memories Cowl pattern. Â It was my mystery project from Yarn Along last week. Â Best of all, it’s free! Â It’s nice and easy and knits up quickly. Â It is long enough to wrap two or three times. Â I think cowls are now my go-to gift for those special people in my life. Â This one is destined to keep a very dear friend toasty warm.
