Another fantastic pattern from Stephen West.
This has been on my to-knit list for ages.- I think it was on my make 9 list for 2 years running and yet it just never got made.
I’ve had the yarn in stash since I think October 2020 so its great to get that into use too.
As always with a Westknits pattern there is lots of interesting techniques and constructions which just leaves it to you to create your own colour story.
The yarns were a delight to use – The gorgeous merino singles from Laura at Adventures In Yarncraft is so dreamy and soft and then the fabulous bold colours from Verity of Truly Hooked have such a contrast.
I love it so much!
