The Shift Cowl is the perfect all-the-time accessory! It looks like an asymmetrical triangle shawl, but is actually knit in the round as a cowl. It only takes a second to throw it on, drape the point to your satisfaction, and “voila!” the perfect finish to any outfit. Three colors are needed for this Mosiac knitting project.
