I love cowls. They are the perfect accessory for cold days to wear around your neck. “Flammes” is the French word for flames, that’s what the pattern reminds me of. I thought I’d boast a little with my knowledge of French…
The cowl is worked flat in an easy lace pattern. There are two versions; one starts with a provisional cast on and ends by grafting with kitchener stitch for a seamless look. The other is joined by buttons, and thus requires buttonholes and great buttons!
