Willowback
Willowback is a delightful project for all you stranded knitters out there, and perhaps for some of you experienced knitters with stranded aspirations!
It’s all knitted in the round, starting with a circle in the center back, then extending out to the sides, which are worked simultaneously and separated by steeks.
A tidy hem - picked up and knitted later - seals in the edges.
Stranded pattern is in charted format only, and is read from from right to left, and in reverse direction.
