Hesperos is the Greek personification of the Evening Star. This was a star of rest, as it marked the end of the day when it appeared at twilight. When Rome became a Christian nation, this star was given the name “Vesper” and it was by this star that Romans said their Vesper prayers every night. 


Sizes 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, and 4 years.

This is a bottom up sweater made in two parts, front and back. Accessibility was the focal point of these sweaters. I wanted the designs to be interesting, engaging, fun, and ultimately easy for knitters of any level to knit.

There is currently a bundles promotion going on. Add all three Celestial Sweaters (Hesperos, Selene, and Helios) to your cart to purchase them at a discount.

The Star relief motif is a charted pattern. It features only Knits and Purls and is worked flat (i.e. back and forth).
