Hi everyone! it’s been quite a long time since I’ve posted something on the blog. Nevertheless, let’s catch up with a new design, and expect many to come soon because I have a lot of projects to share. Fall has begun and Halloween is approaching, so this sweater is a really great fit to make for kids under ten. Simple, beautiful, knits smoothly, and guess what! it comes with a matching hat that I’m going to post soon. Feel free to make it with whatever spooky color you have at hand. So don’t waste time and grab some yarn. I hope your little ones enjoy a fun and exciting night with these friendly ghosts and bats.
