I got the inspiration for this Light and Lacy Mesh Cowl from an infitnity scarf I saw a young girl wear in a song. And even though I’ve seen and listened to same song a couple of times, I am always moved by the adoring words they sing to and about God.

The initial name that came to mind for this Light and Lacy Mesh Cowl was Ever Be Cowl (named after the song). However, when I was done with it, it seemed more fitting to name it after its features- light, due to the nature of yarn used and lacy as it uses the mesh stitch technique for ad open, airy look/feel.
This is a short and sweet pattern you will enjoy making, as the cowl is pretty and can be worn on different outfits. I wished I timed myself while making this, but it was a spur of the moment design that just had to be made.
So, get out your hook and yarn and make this Light and Lacy Mesh Cowl for you or a loved one or for charity.
