Willa
Willa by KC Knitting Co.
Willa is inspired by my spirited, precocious pup. At just over 3 years old, Willa is a true spitfire with boundless energy, runs like a straight shot, and loves with an intense loyalty.
Willa is a tube möbius cowl, starting with a provisional cast on, then knit in the round. Twist the tube once, then seam the ends together using kitchener stitch, creating an infinity loop that is cozy and warm!
