Note: This listing is for the pattern to make a Loopy Dee Loop cowl, not the cowl itself.
Just one skein of Loopy Mango Merino No. 5 will yield a Loopy Dee Loop cowlace! Yes, that’s right, cowlace! That’s slang for cowl + necklace! This fun wrap is warm like a cowl, but delightfully decorative like a festive necklace!
The only thing better than one of these joyful cowlaces is two! Pick two of your favorite Loopy Mango Merino No. 5 colors and make identical or fraternal twins. Or stripes! Or mix and match your pompoms! The Loopy Mango palette truly makes the possibilities endless!
