This hand knit cowl was lovingly handmade by me, with a beautiful diagonal striping mosaic pattern. You will receive the exact cowl shown in the photos. This yarn is made from mulesing-free wool which comes from Uruguay on farms which raise free-range sheep herded by old-style shepherds, and it is hand-spun and kettle-dyed in Peru. It is 8.5" in height, with a 18.5" circumference. It does not have much stretch. yarn: 100% Uruguayan merino wool tag: faux leather Care instructions: hand wash in cool, lay flat to dry. Do not overly agitate or overheat, as this will cause felting. Do not machine wash or dry as this will damage the wool. Do not bleach, iron or dry clean.
