• Product description

  Originally appearing in the Holiday Gifts 2007 issue of Interweave Knits magazine, this pattern was inspired by the work of Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas, whose geometric, structural design of the Seattle Central Library is mirrored in the cabled lattice motif. Slanting twisted stitches cross and recross, transforming architectural planes into organic curves that gently hug the head to gather in a striking starburst crown.

  Designer: Jared Flood

  Collection: Classics, BT Revivals
