This is a collaboration with the talented Annie Paaren. In support of her new yarn base, I’ve designed this beautiful colourwork cowl.

We are fortunate to live in a multicultural city and an even more diverse neighbourhoods. The colour work in the pattern is my interpretation of the plexus of diversity.

The cowl is knit in a tube which is then grafted together with the kitchener stitch method. Stranded colourwork is a skillset you will develop.
