Weightless. Softness. Warmth. This diaphanous cowl, worked in the unique Dresden DK, is a go-to fall layering piece.

Pattern Notes
Worked from the bottom up, Flux uses a very simple stitch pattern and a series of increases and decreases to create a beautifully shaped accessory. The yarn is the superstar in this easy, quick knit.
