Legion by Theressa Silver

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry(goes to new website)(opens in a new tab).  

Sleek, modern and a little edgy, the legion cowl features unusual construction and a thick, three-dimensional stitch pattern. The collar part of the cowl is knit flat then folded into shape. Stitches are picked up along one side and the yoke is knit. The instructions include photos of exactly how to fold the piece and where to pick up the stitches. The lacy ribbing gives tons of texture and highlights the beautiful yarn used. The piece is finished with an i-cord bind off that matches the thickness of the ribbing.

Photos are included to show how to fold the piece into the proper shape.
