The main reason I love cowls is the way that the warp yarns intersect each other when they join together to make the main front piece. You can really play with colour, stripes, squares and rectangles in the design for this and it's easier than having to repeat a pattern for a whole scarf. I even got a Highly Commended Prize for my Cowls at Scotland's Trade Fair in 2016 when I first exhibited there.

My family liked the idea of the cowl so I started to make them one each. The design of the cowl means it is fully woven in one piece and this is done by taking the cloth off the loom near the end of weaving and then weaving the beginning of the cloth into the end of the cloth (this will make sense later). There was a Flickr slideshow showing you how to make this cowl on a rigid heddle loom and I followed that and made my first cowl that used my own handspun yarn and bits and bobs of stash yarn back in January 2012. So, when I started weaving and got interested in all the patterns out there I fell in love with the Möbius Cowl pattern that was shown by Nickolena on the Weaving in the Saori Way Group on Ravelry.
However, walking along the beach wearing a scarf can prove tricky at times as it can get windy and you can end up battling with your scarf if it's not anchored down. I've always been one for wrapping up warm and grabbing a scarf when I go out especially in the Autumn and Winter.
