The Candy Shop Cowl is colorful, soft and super easy to stitch up. Worked in just five rounds, it is the perfect project for getting some quick gifts made up too! Thick and fuzzy blue yarn is reminiscent of cotton candy, while a round of bright pink puff stitches look like pretty little candies in a row.
