Just like my earlier origami designs, Foldsphere plays with depth, shadows, and movement, inviting the fabric to fold and unfold in a rhythmic, architectural way. The motif builds on the same principles I’ve loved working with: clean lines, geometric precision, and the quiet magic of seeing flat knitting rise into structure with just a twist of technique. What makes Foldsphere special is its versatility. Because it’s a loop cowl, you can wear it in multiple ways — draped, folded, doubled, or spread out to showcase every peak and valley of the origami texture. The folds create a dynamic surface that shifts as you move, catching light differently from every angle, making it both a functional winter accessory and a little wearable sculpture. Whether you’re already familiar with my origami pieces or discovering this style for the first time, Foldsphere offers the same meditative joy: watching a simple series of stitches bloom into something dimensional, tactile, and beautifully unexpected. Let the folds wrap, expand, and shape themselves around you — that’s where the magic happens. **SIZES** M (L) Sample shown in size L **YARN** Tandem by West Wool (100% South America Merino Wool, 254 yds / 233 m – 100 g). 2 (3) skeins of colorway Birch Tree. Or approximately 470 (725) yds / 430 (665) m of DK weight yarn. **NEEDLES** US 6 / 4 mm 40” / 100 cm circular needles. **NOTIONS** Tapestry needle. **GAUGE** 34 sts x 34 rows to 4” / 10 cm on US 6 / 4 mm needles in Foldsphere Chart pattern, after blocking, or size to obtain gauge. ⚠️ Note: To measure the gauge, block the swatch, emphasizing each origami line and leave it to dry. Measure the swatch with pleats unflattened. **MEASUREMENTS** Circumference: 42½ (50¾)” / 106 (127) cm. Width: 8 (10¼)” / 20 (25.5) cm. ⚠️ Note: The circumference may change slightly depending on how tightly you fold the origami folds during blocking, but as long as you achieve the stated gauge, it will not affect the fit. **CONSTRUCTION** The scarf is knitted from the bottom up, in the round.
