Safdie by Alison Green

Craft: Knitting

Embrace modern style with Safdie, a large, structured cowl featuring crisp, geometric details. The innovative construction and the snuggly softness of this cozy project can’t be beat, made in vertical tiers of mitered squares that get progressively smaller toward the top. Each tier is built by picking up stitches from the previous one, with the first tier sewn to the last for a smooth finish. Ultra Alpaca Chunky Natural can’t be beat for warmth and comfort, and it’s available in a wide range of solid and marled undyed shades.
