The Hudson River Cowl is named after the breathtaking waterway that gracefully flows 315 miles along the eastern edge of New York State. From the awe-inspiring views in upstate New York to the bustling vibrancy of Manhattan’s New York Bay, the Hudson River holds a special place in the hearts of all New Yorkers. With every stitch, this cowl evokes the beauty and nostalgia of my favorite spots along the river, making it a truly personal creation.

For this cowl, I recommend using any light worsted weight yarn to achieve the best results.

The suggested needle size for this pattern is 8 (5.0mm), ensuring a cozy yet breathable fabric perfect for chilly days.
