Cashie

Meaning luxuriant and succulent in Scots, Cashie is a cylindrical lace cowl knit in the round! Lush leaves grow out of the top edge and cascade down to the bottom where they disappear back into more garter stitch. As they grow down the cowl the leaves increase in size making the cowl sit nicely on your shoulders. Cashie is a great introduction to lace knitting, or a relaxing knit for the more experienced knitter. Bringing with it the hope of spring, Cashie is a great layering piece for the changing seasons!
