It’s worked from the bottom up, starting with a small number of stitches at the center and expanding outward in tiers. This is done using the Cable cast on method for clean, stable edges.
The pattern features a variation of the classic Old Shale stitch, with all increases and decreases grouped in one row, creating sculptural waves.
Customize the finished size by using a different yarn weight - either 50g of Fingering weight, or 100g of DK weight.
