I have always been fascinated by the human brain capacity of interpreting two dimensional drawings into three dimensional images. The Necker cube is one of the most famous examples of brain perception tricks, with the viewer being able to flip the image from one orientation to another. My cowl is using a simpler visual trick, with three parallelograms knitted in different stitch patterns seemingly creating an image of a cube.
