While knitting by hand we invest our time, attention and care into each stitch.
Bristol loves exploring intriguing construction methods and crafting exquisite knitterly details, and with this design she does both.
The yoke is worked sideways to the body, shaped by short rows, and the result is a striking organic motif.
