Hiking Reindeer Cowl
"This stunning is cowl is created using stranded knitting, worked in the round. As you knit, an intricate picture emerges of trees and a reindeer, set against the background of a blazing sunset. Guaranteed to keep you cosy in the winter months! The design was inspired by the view I sometimes see when I'm driving home from work. Obviously I can't take photos from the wheel of a moving car, so I had to remember the view and reproduce it in yarn, instead! Enjoy."

This is gorgeous! I definitely don't have the skills for this, but I want to work towards it. I'd love having this around my neck!

Wow, what a striking cowl! This is gorgeous, but it looks a little advanced for me. Maybe something to work towards for the future!
