When Stacey and I were getting to know each other I asked her where she lived. Her reply included the comment, “Quite a drive but I have chickens and a garden.” Without any doubt I knew in that moment that the name of the pattern I designed for her had to be, “I have Chickens.” The brioche cowl I settled on features chicken eggs hidden in the grass with cute little chicken feet on both edges. Stacey’s signature gradient yarn gives the project that extra special touch.
