Yarn Details
Cascade Yarns Eco Alpaca (100% undyed alpaca; 220 yd 201 m/100 g):
• #1520 black (MC), 1 skein (Approx. 200 yds used)
• #1510 natural (CC), 1 skein (Approx. 130 yds used)
Yarn weights from sport to light weight worsted may be used.

The idea for this cowl came while I was thinking of a new design for teaching a stranded colorwork class.

The name “Equilibrium” comes from the equal balance of dark and light stitches on each side.

I am thrilled to have my design included in Knitscene Accessories 2012!!!
