NATHALIE (EN)

Description

NATHALIE is a cowl that turns into a hood depending on the weather and enhances your winter look. It is knitted mainly in stockinette stitch, from the bottom to the top, first in the round and then back and forth to form the front opening. The top of the hood is assembled by grafting. After picking up the stitches around the opening, you knit a 1/1 ribbed border that when folded, will allow the i-cord to slide through.
NATHALIE is a quick and easy to knit accessory, ideal to bring a little touch of comfort to all your winter outfits.
