Puerto
Inspired by a Spanish harbor became this elegant cable & lace cowl to life. A fragile colored and powdery feeling silk/merino yarn gives the cowl it’s softness and luster.
Pattern includes full written instructions and a chart.
Special thanks to my wonderful testers!
I’m deeply touched by all the effort they have made to get my birthday cowl published in time.
