Plaid House
Plaid is a spicy combo of color and shape. And it is always in style! I was inspired to design this plaid cowl after spying an old
woven blanket in an antique shop on a weekend away with my husband. I dove in, started drawing, grabbed some needles
and yarn, and here we are. This cowl is knit in the round in stranded colorwork with an added touch of embellishment that
brings the plaid to life. Bring on the color combos!
