About
Learn the magic of making a cross-weave cowl scarf. The two ends of the scarf are woven together to make a full cowl. In the first session, we will learn the warping secret. During the next session, you will weave your length and the magic of weaving the ends together will be revealed! The link to the pattern below shows many examples of the hero cowl.
