Marble Falls begins with a provisional cast on. Just one color is worked per row in a sequence of various slip stitch patterns. Stitches are picked up along the top and bottom edges of the cowl for a finished look.

The small batch undyed natural yarn from Orchid Hill Farms was a joy to design with. Its gauge is slightly heavier than the & Make Aran, hence the gauge range.
