Designed for LYS Day 2025.
The Greta cowl has a structured, gridded texture juxtaposing
the playful scalloped edging, which can be made in the same
yarn for a smooth transition or in a contrasting mini skein to
accentuate the border. Easily memorized, this is a perfectly
portable project, ready to be picked up on the go. The simple
texture works great with a solid or semi-solid, or showcases
that precious single skein of hand-dyed variegated yarn,
letting the colours shine.
