Notes

This new design is dedicated to the Uptown Knit Mob. I bought my main yarns at Wolseley Wool in Winnipeg, but snuck in some Koigu orphan from Shall We Knit? of Waterloo. A beauteous joining of LYSes that celebrates my move home. We lived in Kitchener, ON for 8 years before returning to our extended families in Winnipeg, MB (because such was always our intention and I was pregnant with twins).

Notes:
White crystal matte beads.

Finally got around to reworking this design that I started in 2012. New version’s body looks nothing like the original. I like this one better.

stst: 6.5rows and 6 sts per inch
radius: 19”

post-blocking
stst: 6rows and 5.5sts per inch
