Geometric panels create a softly pleated fabric with lacy holes that spiral around the neck and shoulders, while gradual decreases hidden within the stitch pattern narrow the tube from bottom to top. A picot bind off at the top is repeated on the bottom, as provisional stitches are picked up and cast off to complete the cowl. Silk yarn creates a versatile garment perfect for wearing from spring into summer and from summer into autumn.
