I needed a quick simple project to whip up for teacher gifts for my 1st graders (twins) to give to their teachers for Christmas. I really love that this pattern is just difficult enough to stay interesting yet simple enough for TV knitting. Also, the pretty braided cable looks really impressive to non-knitters.

I had just enough yarn left over from these to combine them and make one more for my mom. I got lucky too that the English Garden color ended with blue so I was able to get nice transition to the blue/green yarn.
