All patterns in the Bristol Ivy Designs Ravelry store are on sale through midnight September 3rd, 2024 with the code “birthday”!

Waits is Newsom’s twin sister--a lightweight play on mitered shaping. A little fun, a little quirky, but all in a simple, clean, and effortless package and this time from the top down.

Use the coupon code “DUET” to get Newsom and Waits together for $13 rather than $16! Applies to all previous Newsom purchases as well.
