The Shift Cowl by Drea Renee Knits (pattern)

The Shift Cowl by Drea Renee Knits

The legendary Shift Cowl by Drea Renee Knits aka Andrea Mowry was one of the most popular cowl designs of 2018. Knitted in the awesome Spincycle Yarns Dyed in the Wool, the sleek shape and pattern makes for a fine knitted accessory.

We are lucky to also stock the Shift Trio Bundle skeins for this shawl with the three original colours Leith, The Castle and The Meadows.

‘This cowl is the perfect all-the-time accessory! And the answer for all of those knitters out there who love to knit shawls, but have a hard time styling them. A fun and engaging knit with shifting colors, that looks like an asymmetrical triangle shawl, and it only takes a  fiddle-free second to throw it on as the finish to every outfit!’ – Andrea Mowry
