This is the most beautiful cowl I've ever made!* Rainbow yarn is double-knit with black to make two distinct designs: one side is half red, yellow/orange, and green with black markings, and the other half is black with light blue and fuchsia (the first picture); the reverse is black with red, yellow/orange, and green plus light blue and fuchsia with black markings (the second picture). Sounds confusing, but the pictures demonstrate the design. The rainbow yarn is slightly hazy and gives a pretty halo.
The double knitting makes for an extra warm and cozy cowl. I suppose we can call it a gaiter for men and a cowl for women, although it's really the same thing, right? This cowl is made with a really nice acrylic yarn, but I would recommend hand-washing so the fibers will not merge together and distort the design. I'm currently in the midst of knitting a matching set of fingerless gloves - super thick and warm, and I have included a picture.

You may choose 2 custom colors in a variety of yarns: 100% wool (usually softer and hand wash); superwash wool (still 100% wool but can be machine washed); a wool acrylic blend (generally machine wash); or acrylic (machine wash).
*This exact cowl has already been purchased, so your cowl will be started when ordered. The yarns and pattern will be similar, only the color distribution will vary slightly. Custom colors are available. I also have a 2-color cowl similar to this one here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/203903123/two-colors-knit-cowl-reversible?ref=shop_home_active_3
