This simple and everlasting design by Midori Hirose is just perfect to play with striking combinations if you decide to pair 2 different shades of fingering weight yarn, like Midori did using A Stormy Blend LUCE and A Chic Blend BURRASCA.
Like in all her patterns, you'll find many details to choose from to customize your neck, border, length and gauge.
We just love the match created by Stormy and Chic, but are at the same time intrigued by more subtle and colorful combinations got by different Chic shades!
You may browse the SHOP, to build your own, even choosing bulkier yarns like A Pure and Simple Wool or A stormy Blend DK.
