MAKING - A NEW FO!

A NEW FO!

I finally got around to getting a pic of this lovely Snow Crocus sweater by Midori Hirose I finished ages ago! Fall weather is here - yay!

I really enjoyed knitting this one! It was totally different than anything I’ve ever made myself before and I’m so happy with how it turned out. I used up some lingering stash and learned some new techniques too! I had never done a saddle shoulder before so knitting Snow Crocus was a fun way to finally try it! I love how Midori Hirose has all the lovely shaping still flow into the stitch and cable patterns! Makes my designer heart so happy!
