Bertha's Mad, Mysterious Mobius
Part of the mystery of Möbius construction is that it is
neither bottom–up nor top–down, but more like “cast–on–
out.” The cowl begins with an orderly central “spine” of a
cast–on from which emanate the sensual flames which later
dissolve into an almost completely open fabric with little
weight. Wear it wide over your shoulders, hanging straight
down in a big “U,” up over your head as a hood, doubled
around your neck, or in some other way I haven’t thought
of. You may not be mad, but when you tell admirers that
you knit it, everyone will think you have “mad skills.”
