This colorwork cowl features a lovely scrollwork cemetery gate scene motif that circles the entire circumference of the design. Colorwork becomes pure magic when paired with our gradient color-shifting yarn. This pattern is designed for a ‘SplitShade Blossom’ that is half a tonal color and half color morph. You will use the tonal color as MC and the color morph as CC. Alternately you could use two contrasting colors, or a tonal color with a Blossom.
Our 'Split-Shades' Blossoms are specially dyed for colorwork: one half of the cake features a rich tonal hue, while the other half transitions through a beautiful gradient shift. With just one cake, you can create something truly extraordinary!
