Franca Shoulder Cozy by Sarah E. Chapman

Craft: Knitting

Our Franca Shoulder Cozy is the perfect accessory to keep you warm on these days that are becoming more chilly! This cozy is knit top-down in a rib pattern which gradually widens, creating more space between the knit ridges, as it grows to cover the shoulders.

Featuring two new colors of Franca - Malefica and Bayou! Bayou is hand-dyed in shades of green, with pops of delicate peach and pink and a surprise speckle or two! Malefica has the same dye story as Bayou, but is then resist-dyed with black. Knit together in alternating stripes, the colors dance around each other to create a swirling color effect!
