Valley Yarns 1249 Katpana Kit

1249 Katpana Kit
With the lovely look of lace but the warmth of a more solid layer, Katpana is a cowl with a great combination of form and function. With a base of Valley Yarns Hampden that’s silky soft and drapey with its blend of Merino wool, baby alpaca, and silk, the cowl is next to the skin soft and has a delicate lace overlay worked in mohair and silk Southampton. For a go-to accessory or a special gift, Katpana has got you covered! Lace pattern is both charted and written out.
