A brick-inspired geometric pattern that you can get creative with! Try going more literal or figurative by playing with color - experiment with solid or variagated yarns to create a unique piece. Choose from ribbed or garter edging, whichever feels more “you”!

As a bonus, the colorwork floats that you carry on the wrong side of the cowl make it even thicker, warmer and more cozy!

Two colors of worsted weight yarn
Color A: 175-210 yards
