What was your inspiration?

I wanted to have a more finished edge to my cowl neck pattern. I asked a friend who had a lot of RTW cowl neck to look at the facing for me, and then drafted this pattern.

What are you most proud of?

I always love it when I can produce something more professional looking, and I love that this facing is so easy to do!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is an easy adjustment to get a more finished look. Don't worry when your pattern looks funny - it will work!
