Expand your horizons with Athos. Clever construction makes this versatile cowl engaging to knit, while the luxurious pairing of Pebble and Silk Cloud yields a two-toned accessory to suit any style.

Athos is worked flat in two pieces from the tips of the cowl to the center with 1 strand of Pebble and 1 strand of Silk Cloud held together throughout. The distinctive shape is formed with short rows. Pieces are joined at the center with a 3-Needle Bind-off, then seamed at the neck. Athos can be worn as a cowl or a scarf.
