Neck cosy in cobble and gazzel bow waves

A peedie neck cosy, knitted in 100% lambswool. Peedie is the Orkney word for small.

From Ann Mackie Knitting Services and Designs, based at Tankerness in Orkney.

The bow waves pattern is a scrolling curl worked right round the cosy, here in cobble and gazzel, a warm rust over a pale oatmeal ground. It is short, so it sits at the throat and tucks under a coat collar without bulk.

A gift for someone who wants the warmth of a scarf without the length.
