Meghan Babin
The Two Trees Cardigan is inspired by The Last Algonquin, the biography of Joe Two Trees, the last Algonquin living peacefully in Pelham Park. The treelike stitch patterns are a tribute to Joe and to the original Algonquin stewards of the Northeast. The cardigan has a traditional drop-shoulder construction, which allows the stitch pattern to be the focus.
