Sandpiper
Sandpiper was born out of my love for stripes and simplicity. I wanted something I could easily throw on to ward off a nighttime chill or an over air conditioned building and I find that this goes with so many different things. When I knit a sweater, I want to be able to wear it a lot. The simple lace stripes add just enough visual intrigue while gently keeping the knitting moving along at the same time. And the longer vents at the sides mean I can wear it with dresses or shorts. A relaxing knit and a go-to summer sweater in a fabulous yarn.
