A4 printed pattern for Deco Swirl by Louise Zass-Bangham.

About the pattern

A statement cowl, heavily influenced by the rectilinear symmetry of Art Deco lines. Structural columns rotate round the neck, showing a more defined edge to this soft and fluffy Alpaca yarn. Make a neat, snug size for a quick gift, or go for the generous size for a more luxuriously snuggly version. Worked in the round, this is a straightforward knit.
