Sensation
Creating the Sensation cowl allowed me to combine my love of geometry and color contrast with a newer shape I’ve been obsessing over. Though it is worked flat in a simple slip-stitch garter pattern, a quick turn and seam at the end turns a rectangle into a generous, oversized bandana-shaped cowl that dips down to a central point in front, providing extra warmth under an open-necked coat and showing off one of the arresting geometric repeats.
