“This yoke pullover presents a stranded colorwork pattern reminding me of the rib vaults of Gothic cathedrals in which we find majestic stained glass windows! I decided to name this pattern Notre Dame to pay tribute to the Notre Dame de Paris cathedral which was the victim of a fire in April 2019” - Louise
