Haikeus is a cowl with an appearance of a triangular shawl. It’s knit as a flat rectangle and seamed together with one short seam. Haikeus combines eyelet basket weave with a simple texture panel, and the way these fabrics naturally behave work well with the shape of the cowl. The pattern includes both written and charted instructions for the charts.
