Brioche Owl Cowl

Every once in a while, Susan, the owner of the yarn store I work at, A Good Yarn in Sarasota, asks me to knit a sample for the store. My most recent sample is this sweet brioche cowl, knit in The Fiber Seed’s Sprout DK. I love knitting brioche. Combine that with some of my favorite colors, and this project was a total join. It … Continue reading Brioche Owl Cowl
