Esquina Cowl by Lisa R. Myers

Craft: Knitting

This cowl is a playful exercise in mitering to make the most of a space-dyed yarn: the increasing number of stitches keeps the colors in the yarn moving along the row to avoid any striping or “stacking”. A simple eyelet texture stitch draws attention to the change in knitting direction.
