RIPPLE COWL

Simple Stockinette stitch fabric is transformed by alternating diagonal pleats to create this undulating cabling texture using lifted stitches technique or “tucking”, similarly worked in TRUSS headband. The finished accessory can be styled in a variety of ways, a cowl, a crown-like headband, and creates the most effective 3 dimensional necklace. It can adorn one’s neckline in a manner of a wool collar to dress up any neckline of a coat or a dress!
