Cabaletta
Kyle William Designs | 2014


Inspired by the architecture at San Francisco’s War Memorial Opera House, Cabaletta pairs a repeating geometric with a multi-color background. It’s a symphony of pattern that’s entertaining to knit! The dance of color comes from Crystal Palace Yarns Sausalito. Because this yarn is made of two plies, the color shifts are gentle and constant. Taking time to lock each float helps to ensure an impeccably finished piece. This little cowl stores nicely in a bag and promises to come to the rescue on chilly evenings.

This pattern requires intermediate knitting knowledge including: cast-on, working in the round, reading charts, and simple stranded color work, on circular and double point needles.
