Bloomington Morning
As the sun begins to rise, the dark sky turns shades of pink and orange in anticipation of a beautiful day. Crisp morning air calls for a cozy accessory to sweep around your neck in the light of dawn. This design is the perfect way to highlight a special variegated or brightly speckled yarn. Paired with a high-contrast solid, simple eyelets and a unique slip-stitch pattern allow you to create an eye-catching masterpiece while only knitting one color at a time. Beginning with just a few stitches, increases on each side work their way outward to create a lovely, sweeping crescent with beautiful drape and a lovely curl when worn.
