Institute Cowl

$7.00

 The Institute Cowl is a celebration of line and color. The line work of ancient Persian pottery at the University of Chicago’s Oriental Institute inspired the geometric motif. Beginning and ending with 1x1 rib, the cowl is worked in stranded colorwork in the round from the bottom up. The simple pattern repeat makes for a great beginner colorwork project.

Also available for purchase on Ravelry.
