Description
Cable Cowl Pattern – By Kris Gregson (Digital Download)
This cowl shows off simple cables
and bobbles for a fun piece that
fits comfortably around the neck.
The pattern looks very
challenging, but in fact uses basic
cable techniques. It is knit in the
round with a charted pattern
with no top or bottom when wearing it. Although cabling does take a bit more time to
work the outcome is just lovely. •••
