When designing this cowl, Fatimah and Elisabeth, really wanted to be intentional which each stitch and yarn selection. They chose to juxtapose textured and smooth stitches in a uneven manner. None of the sections are the same size. This is a reflection of how our community is diverse, yet a bit similar. The pop of color was added using a yarn weight that is a bit larger than the other used to reflect what Radicle Threads Magazine represents in the Fiber and Textile industry. A little pop of sunshine, going against the grain, paving a way.
