Laura Nelkin is well known for her beautiful designs, and we were thrilled when she agreed to design for our Dream Club! She’s created a mobius cowl that is a stunning match to our October yarn. Her “Cruzado Criss Cross” stitches allow long, beautiful stretches of the yarn to show off, showcasing the varied colors. Incorporating several interesting techniques, the Cruzado Cowl is a knit that will keep you interested from cast on to bind off. This pattern is fully written with no charts.
