This is just a little note to let you know that Spring Thaw Cowl pattern is also available – it’s just an oversight, sorry! – here on my site, and it’s free 
As her big sisters Mitts and Tam, the cowl is knit in Broken seed stitch in the round, but just even, so it’s easier. If you know how to knit the classic Seed stitch and you’re not uncomfortable with knitting in the round, you wouldn’t encounter any difficulty.
I hope you’ll discover how addictive this stitch is, and it goes well with the Tam and Mitts
