Starfrontlet is a long triangular wrap, that uses repeats of decreases, and yarn over techniques to create a pattern, similar to that of a hummingbirds feathers. This pattern is a collaboration with my friend Kristen of Foxbane Fibers in Texas. The colors of her hand dyed yarn are so lush and beautiful. It’s the perfect combination.
