Welcome back to our 'Design Diary' series!
As some of you may know already, Kay adores knitting cowls. A few months ago she set out to try and create her perfect cowl design. With specific yarn in mind and the desire to create a very special feel whilst knitting the pattern, could Kay plan and create her perfect cowl design? In todays design diary we find out.
