Ceilidh Frost Cowl

Ceilidh Frost Cowl is a romantic masterpiece that captures the very essence of a Scottish dance. Like a passionate ceilidh under the starry Highland skies, this long tube cowl weaves together intricate peaked cable stitches. Loop it around once loosely or multiple times to keep snug on a winter day, as a symbol of affection as enduring as the winter’s chill.
