Shocktopus uses my signature Optical Delusion technique to create waves of colour to keep you both warm and stylish.
It’s designed to use a single skein of variegated yarn with long colour repeats (18 to 25 cm / 7 to 10 inches), or non-variegated skeins in multiple colours:
• Version 1: Single colour, using long variegated colourways
• Version 2: Three colours, using semi-solid, tonal, or gradient colourways
• Version 3: Multicolour cowl, using 2 or more colourways; can be a mix of variegated and semi-solid colourways

With two different cast on / bind off treatments, three circumferences, and variable heights, the possibilities for customizing this cowl pattern are endless.
