What a gorgeous cowl and I agree with the writer - knitting for men can be VERY difficult. My gorgeous man loves wearing hand knitted items but has very definite ideas about what he will and wont wear. This cowl is going to be just great for him because its non fussy (fussy is his pet hate!), it looks masculine and, even better, looks really easy to make )
