Beautiful stranded knitting pattern from Fiber Dreams! Here's what Laura Patterson says about her lovely design:
All three motifs in this design came from a slim little volume of Swedish colorwork designs that I’ve had so long that I no longer have a clue where or when I came across it. Once I had these lovely motifs working together, I needed a name for my design. I thought that something Swedish would be appropriate. A dear friend of mine happens to have grown up in Sweden, so I went to her for inspiration. Without my telling her, she thought the main motif looked like berries, and so suggested Vinterbär, which is Swedish for winter berries. Perfect!
Cowl is worked in the round, features folded hems, and three different colorwork motifs.
