Coco Chenille
by Cathy Carron
coco chenille
Soft fluffy yarn in shades of gray knits up into a cropped top that is cozy and classy.
FAUX TWEED PULLOVER
The fun part of this design is that the same two tones of gray are combined to create two different tweedy patterns, just by switching which shade is knit and which is purled. It’s a very simple idea but it creates a fascinating effect.
