Braid Fade Cowl Pattern
This super bulky cowl is knit flat and then the two ends are seamed together with an invisible horizontal seam. The cable stitches consist of left crosses and right crosses in 3 different sizes creating a ‘fade’ of the larger braids in the center and the smaller ones on the outside.
Written instructions for each cable stitch are included, as well as both a written and a chart pattern for the cowl.
