This cowl is a bigger, cozier version of the original Fiercely Autumn Cowl published in the August 2017 issue. The tweedy aspect of the Arranmore yarn gives a slightly rustic and fashionable look to this intemporal stitch pattern made of ribbing and cables for a cowl that you will want to wear all autumn long.
