Fall 2009, Neck Cowls



1. Cumberland Cowl & Hood--baby alpaca, mohair, handspun wool/mohair blend, and more. Beautifully soft, with terrific green, honey, liquid blue, and other colors. Fits close to the body, and can be pulled up over head to wear as a hood. Fabulous!
2. Hyde Park Cowl--2 ply handspun yarn makes up this magnificent work of art! I handspun baby alpaca, and plied that with hand dyed silks, wool, cashmere/silk, mohair and more. This one has a little bling with sequins, beads and more. Don't miss this one, it's one of a kind!
