This was such a fun pattern to knit. The way the decreases and increases shift the direction of the stitches looks very beautiful with the self striping yarn.
This is a great pattern to take on the go or to knit while binge-watching your favorite show, as it’s only a 2 rounds repeat.
The kid silk adds a beautiful halo to the overall look while maintaining the integrity of the design.
