Wrap up in cheerful texture and effortless, everyday comfort. 🌤️✨
Sometimes you just need a project that feels like a warm hug from the very first stitch. I designed the Happy Cowl to be the a simple expression of color! It's a meditative and rhythmic knit that results in a squishy infinity scarf you will want to wear every single day.
Worked seamlessly in the round, this cowl features an intuitive knit-and-purl combination that builds a beautiful diagonal rib design. Because the texture looks equally polished on both sides, there is no "wrong side" to worry about when you style it!
Wear it long and drapey to show off the elegant movement of the rows, or double it up around your neck for the ultimate, plush snuggle on chilly mornings.
I’ve bundled this favorite design into a ready-to-go kit. Just choose your favorite happy shade from our complete palette of solids or heathered tones, and I'll send the perfect amount of premium wool straight to your porch!

Questions you might have
What's in the kit?
You'll get 3 skeins of Wooly Worsted (or Heather's Heathers) in the color you choose, plus the Happy Cowl pattern as both a printed copy and a PDF. Needles, a stitch marker, and a tapestry needle aren't included. They're listed above under "What You'll Need."
I can't find my pattern. What should I do?
The PDF is emailed to you after checkout, so it's worth a quick look in your spam or promotions folder. If it still isn't there, email hello@eweewe.com with your order number and I'll send it right over. A printed copy is also packed in your kit.
Is this kit right for a beginner?
Yes. This is a Level 1 project, so if you can knit and purl you have what you need. If you get stuck along the way, our Knitting Knowledge tutorials and the Secret Society of Knitters community are here to help, or you can email me.
Will the color look like the photo?
Screens vary, so a color can look a little different in person. If you're unsure about a shade, email me before you order and I'll help you choose.
Should I order extra yarn?
The kit has the amount of yarn the pattern calls for. If you think you might want to change the project, like making the cowl longer, it's better to order a little extra now. Dye lots vary from batch to batch, and I can't always match a specific lot later.
How do I care for my finished cowl?
My main recommendation is to soak your finished cowl in Soak Wash or another wool wash and block it, because blocking is where the stitches bloom. The yarn is also machine washable (inside out in cool water) and can tumble dry low, so everyday care is easy. All of our yarns are 100% fine superwash merino wool from Australia, spun and dyed in Italy.
How soon will my order ship, and what does it cost?
I pack and ship orders within one business day, six days a week including Saturday mornings. They go out by USPS Ground Advantage from Oceanside, California, so delivery time depends on USPS and where you live. Shipping is free on US orders over $75 and $5 on smaller US orders, and you'll get a tracking email when your order is on its way.
Can I return my yarn?
Unused items in their original condition can be returned within 30 days of receiving them. Email hello@eweewe.com with your name and order number and I'll take care of you. If something arrives damaged or isn't what you ordered, let me know right away and I'll make it right.
Let customers speak for us
Making for Halloween. The colors pop. The yarn feels so soft.
An oops. Plus usually when I buy EWE EWE bundles the pattern is included, not this time.
this Wooly Worsted MerinoYarn is beautiful and extremely soft to the touch. The color is rich and true and will make an amazing looking sweater. I can’t wait to start using this yarn then actually wearing it. I highly recommend this yarn from Ewe Ewe Yarns!
Where is the link to download the hat
The yarn is wonderful and customer service is top notch.
There will be knots in some skeins which is normal. I don't know if this will pill or not until it's knit into something but it's the nature of Merino to do so but that doesn't bother me. I only needed 3 skeins but the price was so good that I bought 5. It's super soft like you would expect and the proper thickness for a fingering sock weight. I split the skeins into (6) 56 to 58 gram skeins and dyed up 5. They took the dye nicely and I am pleased with my results. My yarn was packaged well/nicely and shipped VERY quickly and arrived at my doorstep safe and sound. I would purchase this again.
I ordered the baa bag bulky for my hat pattern, that I also bought from Eye eye yarns. I love this yarn !! It is so nice to work with. It is also soo soft!
I really like the pattern. Beautiful!
I love these little scissors. They fit perfectly with all of my other knitting accessories in my tote and they even have their own case. They are sharp and easy to use!
I am blown away by the feel and quality of this yarn at such a Great price!!!
Love this yarn. Sooo soft and the color is beautiful
Temperature Tee Yarn Kit
I’ve been waiting for the perfect yarn to start on my new wearable and the perfect pattern to do it with. Ewe Ewe has provided both. Not to mention the care and thoughtfulness of Heather, the owner , which makes it all the more fabulous!
I was open, when I ordered more yarn, to receive a different dye lot. I just figured for this children’s sweater I could make it work. Imagine my delight when I received the same dye lot! And quickly! I’m charged and almost finished!
I absolutely love this yarn. I had to buy more to make a hat and scarf!
