INSPIRATION

After Five is a seamless cowl that uses two variations of a simple mosaic stitch to show off the beauty of the squishy hand-dyed yarn. There are two rounds that use stranded knitting but the rest of the cowl is slipped stitch mosaic that uses one color per round.

The pattern is fully written.
