Braids
Braids is an endearing little shawl featuring cables that look like braided strands of yarn. For Yukie Onodera, they also resembled the tail of a cat! You can drape the shawl over your shoulders, wrap it around your neck, or even wear it as an accessory in your bag. The pattern only uses a small amount of yarn.
