For that time when your kid wants cabled (over the) knee high socks with an elastic band in a yarn that will obscure the cables and is also not too thick/not too thin - and gets a super sized scarf instead.

I am smitten with gradient kits. The lovely way the colors morph is captivating. I wanted to create a pattern that would work with the changes, add texture, and enhance the beauty of the color transitions.

I designed this to be that “go to” sweater that you automatically reach for time and again. It fits well and is comfortable to wear.

This is a versatile accessory that can be worn year-round as an outer garment in the warmer weather and as an accent piece in cooler weather. Wear it one of three ways, point in front, point in back, or point to the side. You get the point?! If you knit it in a sparkly yarn, it is the perfect piece to wear in the evening.
