Zig Zag Wings
If you purchase 5 of my self-published designs at the same time (they need to be in the same cart), you will get the least expensive for free!
Zig Zag Wings is a slightly slouchy beanie knit from the bottom up.
Choose the 2-color or 3-color version, each featuring its own simple fair-isle pattern.
If you’re looking for a matching cowl to the Little Wings version, check out awesome Flambeau by my friend Sara Gresbach.
