Sporty Forty is a collaboration between me and Heather of Ewe Ewe Yarns after we realized we were both celebrating our 40th birthday in March of 2019! What better way to celebrate our milestone than with a fun project and Ewe Ewe’s cheerful sport-weight yarn.

You can pick 3 colors of the beautiful Ewe So Sporty yarn - there are so many great color combos! You just need 1 skein of 2 colors and 2 skeins of 1 color (for a total of 4 skeins). Click here to view the yarn.
