Quoted from Patternfish site: This is the knitting equivalent of starring in Cirque du Soleil. “It was long ago and far away,” reminisces Pratt, “when knitting was full of creative inspiration, and not just a reason to open another spreadsheet.” She goes on: “This is a challenging pattern, not for the timid. You must be able to see where the patterns are moving… it is strongly suggested that you make the fronts and sleeves first, so that you are familiar with the patterns when working the back adaptations.” Sometimes you have to break out and express yourself, and trust that you’ll find your audience. Is this cardi the real Pratt? She says yes. Features very gently set-in sleeves. Charts are large and have to be taped together, but otherwise fine.
