Ysolda Snapdragon Tam is a cozy tam featuring an allover lattice cable pattern, with petals (or perhaps they’re little flames) that grow organically in the center of each open section. Snapdragon looks complicated but is surprisingly simple to knit, and you can work from either written or charted directions. Whether worked in a bright glowing color or a cool neutral Snapdragon is a fun pattern that’s sure to cheer up dreary winter days and would make a perfect gift. Complete a cute matching set by making the Snapdragon Flip Flops Mittens. The cable pattern is charted and written out.
