AVIATE
*Originally published in amirisu magazine, Fall/Winter 2022, Issue 25
AVIATE is a structured cowl inspired by themes of sculpture, architecture, and modern lines. The cowl is knitted flat, in two panels. One panel is knitted in garter stitch and the other is knitted in herringbone stitch. The panels are then seamed together, with the garter stitch panel horizontal and herringbone stitch panel vertical. I-Cord edging is added around the entire cowl at the end.
