It’s hard to live next to the mighty Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest without wanting to weave its flow into every creation.

Credit also goes to several knitting muses. Thanks to Barbara Walker and her classic Embossed Twining Vine Leaf design and SMariek Knits for her skillful tweaking of the vine pattern. Finally, Adele Huey McCall’s Irish Knit Poncho pattern demonstrates how ponchos make a perfect palette for any combination of stitches.

I’d love to see if this pattern inspires any new ideas!
