Taken from: Pom Pom Quarterly "Overcheck" - Inspired by cross motifs woven into traditional Welsh woollen blankets, this cowl is an instant classic with a contemporary edge. Double knitting builds a dense and squeezable fabric that is a pure pleasure to wear, especially as the winds become brisk. Go high contrast and incorporate a loud colour you'd never normally use or go subtle and let the pattern shimmer. Either way, bundle up and get outside to enjoy the fabled autumn light.
