Spiral Galaxy

In Cowls, Good for gradients, Lace weight yarn, Patterns, Sport weight yarn, Worsted weight yarn by Shannon

This cowl is deceptively simple. Sure, casting on and binding off both take for ever, but it’s a fun project, utilizing Cat Bordhi’s truly magical moebius cast on and my very favorite I cord bind off and a whole bunch of easy, beautiful knitting in between. In the Schoppel Wolle yarns, it looks like something out of this world.
