ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Sweet Clover Cowl uses simple increases and yarn overs to evoke the sweet clover blooms on the prairies in Middle America during the spring and summer. On warm afternoons the gentle, vanilla-like scent of sweet clover drifts across the prairie and lives up to its scientific name of Melilotus derived from the Latin Mel for honey. The Sweet Clover Cowl is long for a draped-scarf feel. Lace is charted and written.
