Juniper

Cozy, cute, and incredibly fun to knit, Juniper is a colorwork cowl designed to use the leftovers from the Cedar sweater. The perfect final touch to a winter outfit, Juniper fits snugly around the neck with the mobius twist creating a dip in the front to fit nicely around the face. Three sizes from toddler to adult mean you can make a Juniper for anyone. Juniper is worked end to end in the round. The ends are joined with Kitchener Stitch to complete the loop.

Juniper is part of the Woodland Ramble collection. The entire collection is available as both an ebook and printed book here on my website as well.
