This pattern was designed with Malinda Lesko as part of the Knit Stars Pro/Am competition KAL running January 3 - February 14, 2024.

Malinda and I have a mutual friend named Candace, an incredibly wonderful woman who is, in many ways, responsible for bringing Malinda and I together as friends. Candace is a warm and very comforting person, both in her career as a nurse, and as a friend. When Malinda and I felt the comforting soft squishiness of Loops Luxe Chunky we thought this would be a great way to give some love and comfort back to Candace who gives so much of it to others.
