A simple striped cowl gets a playful twist with gradient color shifts. Knit from both ends of a Blossom Cake, the hues
fade and blend into each other, turning basic stripes into a fun color experiment. Choose a brighter, more colorful cake
to dial up the drama and keep your stitches endlessly engaging. Prefer something softer? An ombré cake, like shown
above, offers a slow, mesmerizing transition for a more subtle effect.
