Gotas means Raindrops in Spanish, because the colorwork designs reminds me of raindrops on a window in a rainy afternoon.
The Gotas Cowl pattern is meant to be an introduction to stranded colorwork, and as a prove of concept for color dominance. There are instructions in the pattern to switch the main and contrasting color to create that visual “line” at the middle.
The pattern includes useful links to relevant blog posts and video tutorials for beginners or for people who want to dig deeper and have a better understanding of color dominance.

This pattern is also part of the Gotas eBook where a matching beanie is available.
