Strange Magic
Strange Magic is a striped cowl worked in the round to create a cozy loop. You begin by working a provisional cast on, and the increases and decreases shape the piece into a bias fabric. By using one solid & a coordinated variegated, the piece has overlapping areas of color where it looks as if it could be made from one yarn. Once finished, the ends are grafted together to create a seamless cowl with no wrong side! This piece would also look great in a single variegated yarn, as it would mix up the color and still show off the bias fabric!
