Designed to use a SINGLE SKEIN of Fingering Weight yarn, Whispering Hope 2 combines the same stitch patterns used in it’s predecessor, in a different shape. Because of the way it’s constructed, this design can easily be made larger (or knit with a thicker yarn), & how to do this is simply explained in the pattern document.

After designing Whispering Hope, I came to the conclusion that a bit more playtime with this lovely combination of stitch patterns was in order.

Upon further investigation I rediscovered a beautiful single skein of fingering weight yarn I had purchased a while back, but hadn’t yet decided what to use it for. Suddenly it seemed to scream at me, “ME - pick ME! Trust me, I’m the one you want!“ It was perfect.
