Being a new mother has been all about adaptations. I will forever love the look and feel of a shawl wrapped around my neck and worn as a scarf. However, as a mother with a baby that loves to grab and pull everything, any long accessory is out of the question. This shawlette cowl gives the look of a wrapped shawl without those long ends for sticky fingers to grab and pull.
This shawlette cowl has been my go-to accessory this winter. The triangular design layers perfectly under jackets and keeps my neck warm. It is easy to put on and take off. The worsted weight makes this cowl a fast project to knit up.
