FAKE IT TO MAKE IT WITH


ANNI HOWARD’S COSY ACCESSORY


Shield yourself from those sneaking winter chills with a big and beautiful wrap.
You can cocoon yourself against the elements and look chic and stylish while you’re at it.
The pattern looks like a cable twist but it’s actually worked by gathering certain stitches,
almost like smocking. You’ll get the chance to practise this when you’re making your
tension square. Add tassels to the ends of your scarf for a final flourish.
