DOT DOT YELLOW

Gorgeous Organic Yarn, Colorblocking, and Polkadots: What’s not to love?
Dot Dot Yellow is sure to cheer you up in these uncertain times. This cowl is knit in the round, there is no wrong side and the ends are grafted together. The result looks very clean and refined, making it a perfect accessory for a lot of looks. The colourwork is easy enough for beginners since you won’t need to catch any floats.

Grab three high-contrast colors (one dark, one light, and one that makes you smile) and get going! I cannot wait to see all of your Dot Dot Yellows, Dot Dot Burgundys, Dot Dot Sky Blues and Dot Dot Rainbow Gradients!
