About the Design
I have always admired quilt motifs, and love to incorporate them into knitting. W earing this sweater gives me a feeling of home, of tradition, but not a sleepy, under- a-quilt feeling!
The colors may be traditional, but when placed in this allover graphic, they come to life! It’s a sweater I wear when I’m happy - and so, hardly a day goes by when I don’t want to wear it. So, I hope you will knit it, wear it, and be happy, too.
