Storyline - by Tin Can Knits

Characters, plot, texture, conflict, resolution… While the stories we tell are distinct, most share a common architecture. In this way, Storyline is a genre knit – a sumptuous cardigan covered in cables and texture, like many that have come before but also quite unique. It’s the same old story, told our way.
