Peggi’s Cowl
Peggi’s Cowl is part of the Ravencor Aesthetic. The Ravencor Aesthetic is clothing, accessories and patterns made for characters in my book, The Ravencaw.
Peggi
This Cowl was lovingly created by Peggi. She was the beloved grandmother to Braven, Master Cook at the local Dún. Braven adored his grandmother, as did everyone that ever met her. Her smile and kindness was infectious; you couldn’t help but feel happy and content around Peggi.
Among her many talents, Peggi loved to crochet. People from all corners of the land sought lessons from her. It was a blessing to learn from an incredibly gifted and gracious mentor such as Peggi.
Peggi’s Cowl is part of the, Peggi’s Woodland Set. This includes a cowl, headband and beanie. You will find all 3 patterns available here on my website once all patterns are complete. But for now, I hope you enjoy this cowl pattern as much as I do.
