Fenway Cowl
One of my favorite spots in the Fenway area of Boston is the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum; there’s an incredible indoor courtyard garden. The eyelet lace reminds me of the light that streams through the courtyard.
This accessory totally works for dressing up for a fancy event or casually dressing for grabbing coffee with friends. Perfect for gift giving, but you’ll really want one for yourself too.
Enjoy a bit of light and warmth with this easy-to-knit cowl, of course, with a cup of coffee or tea!
