Inspired by decadent Baroque art from the 16th century, as well as Baroque Pop from the 1960’s. This lavish cowl shifts the focus from fluid, filigree colorwork to a structured flower motif. Worked in the round and seamed closed at the end for no visible floats and an invisible join.
 
Check out my Jogless Jog for Colorwork video.
 
Some floats will be up to 13 sts, you may find it helpful to lock floats in-between these longer areas, to keep the right side of the fabric an even tension.
