Named after Victoria’s only castle, Craigdarroch Castle. With its stately architecture and textured stone walls, we were inspired to create a cowl that features the classic style and texture of traditional cables. The cable pattern may look intricate, but it is a simple repeat that is easy to work, even for those new to cablework.
