The Cowl

To me the cowl is as indicative of etsy as a scrabble tile, owls, and sparrows.  In fact, I counted in one etsy finds email and found 5 cowls.  As you can probably tell, I have for a long time had a slight distaste for cowls and etsy's obsession with them.

However, I have come around to the idea of cowls thanks first, to my friend Lauren, who knit me a lovely, soft and comfortable cowl for Christmas that I honestly didn't want to take off; and second, to these fine artists who show that the cowl can manifest in a variety of beautiful and creative ways.

I love the slouchy bohemian appearance of these cowls, and their easy wearability.
