Notes on project:
I can’t say enough how much I love knitting this pattern. It’s intricate enough to keep me interested, but not so much that my hands hurt after each row. It blocks beautifully and just shines when made in a silk mix. I’ve knit this pattern so many times I’ve lost count but still find it just as much fun to knit as the first time around.
