For the woman who is a little more practical and simplistic in her style, she may not like all those fringe oversized shawl patterns out there. Now here is a great alternative! Not only is it stylish, but it will really keep the cold out. A more form fitting style like this is suitable for wear over a simple fleece jacket or a sweater. Dare I say, could this even be worn by a guy?! After you change up the color to a deep navy and browse other button choices... It may work!

I love the sophisticated look of this cowl, but after seeing how huge it turns out as modeled by the little girl, I think Ill opt for working it in regular worsted weight instead of bulky. This is definitely an Intermediate pattern as it calls for working the ribbing and then turning the entire work to complete the bottom of the project.

What a big chunky cowl! I bet it is nice and comfy for cold weather. It has a very interesting style that looks like knitting, and I like the button embellishments. With the super bulky/super chunky yarn and big hook it should work up quickly, and the pattern is easy to follow.
