BOTH DESIGNS ARE INCLUDED IN THE PATTERN!

Inspired by the opulence of the Roaring Twenties, these colorwork cowls feature two different art deco motifs, both evoking the glamour of the Jazz Age. In striking contrast, the black and grey rendition showcases a repeating geometric design, while the gold and white option features a timeless traditional fan pattern. Beginning colorwork knitters will appreciate the repetition of the geometric design, while the angles and movement of the fan design provide a fun challenge for a more experience knitter.
