"May the favour of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands." Psalm 90:17 NIV I designed this cowl for my sister's Christmas present. She has a very classic style and likes a lot of neutral colours so I wanted something that would have a nice stitch definition without being too over-the-top. The lace pattern doesn't stand out much in the black yarn, but would really pop if done in a fun colour- depending on what your personal style is. It's very quick to knit making it a great gift project.
