Forget tired scarves and bulky turtlenecks—funky, chunky, hip and happening cowls are where it's at! Following up her hit book Hattitude, author and designer Cathy Carron weaves a fashion statement that puts in-the-know women head and shoulders above the rest. Wild Purls has just received Cathy's book, CowlGirls and among the more than 40 patterns provided here are a cozy neck wrap featuring a built-in iPod holder, a lacy drawstring hood, and a woven necklace sparkling with Swarovski crystals. We are anxious to try the patterns here in this book - most are chunky - so that really translates to super speedy! Start tonite . . . . wear tomorrow! Of course, not all are bulky, some are made with beaded yarns (think ArtYarns), so you can also knit something special for a dear friend too.
