I love a good cowl, don’t you??? This one worked up in no time with a modern, cool color scheme that will match any outfit. I made these 6 granny squares in a jiffy and I just knew they would would perfectly in a cowl. This granny square cowl is a perfect ‘on the go’ project and it’s instant gratification as it doesn’t take nearly as long as a blanket would. A nice gift? Yes!!
