To celebrate its release, Yuletide Forest Cowl (and the matching hat, or the ebook with both patterns) is 25% off through December 12, no coupon code needed.

This cowl is the perfect project to knit inside on a cold winter’s day, looking out at the leaden sky. Once it is finished, it will keep your neck warm with snowflakes and bare branched trees as you take a walk in the winter woods.

Yuletide Forest is knit in the round from the bottom to the top. This pattern does contain some longer floats.
