Colibri Sweater
One day I dream I will see one of these little birds. They
fascinate me and always have. So small, pretty, colorful and
strong. Like a little fairy, but unlike fairies they actually exist.
They can hide their colors if they need to. If that is not magic,
I do not know what is.
I see the hummingbird as a symbol. Even if you are little, you can be strong, smart and beautiful. Just like every little boy and girl out there.
Top down, circular yoke sweater knitted seamlessly in one piece. Easy construction for the advanced beginner.
