Layers are the name of the game in this next installment of fall fashion. Today I am featuring Dahshur and the Joselyn Cowl.
In the original pattern photos, I styled Dahshur for warm weather with a pair of linen pants and a bit of exotic gold jewelry. While it is worked in an alpaca/silk blend yarn, the lacy open fabric of Dahshur is cool to wear.

How to transition Dahshur for fall? Layers are the key. Begin with a tissue-weight long sleeved tee in a color that matches one of the variations in the hand-dyed yarn. Pair with dark skinny jeans and a pair of rugged boots.
There is a taboo in the knitting community against wearing more than one handknit at a time, but I think it can be done when the pieces are chosen carefully. In this instance, the golden tone of the Joselyn Cowl matches one of the color variations in the Dahshur yarn, and both are worked in fuzzy alpaca yarns. When colors and textures aren't competing, the pieces can pair well together.
