Description
Mirror Image Cowl
Fuzzy, colorful fun begins with our Minou yarn. Spun in Italy, this luxurious blend of baby alpaca, merino wool, and nylon will make you fall in love with eyelash yarns. The rich texture of the yarn is paired perfectly with its soft feel and surprising warmth. The Mirror Image Cowl makes the most of 2 balls of Minou, with a colorwork Diamond pattern that pops. Best part? We have a knit and crochet version of this pattern, so choose a hook or needles and get started! Bonus points if you and your crafty bestie make matching cowls.
