Carnaby kid
ALSO AVAILABLE FOR ADULTS AND BABIES
The original Carnaby Street was inspired by my trip to London in 1968, Carnaby Street. Now it is available for kids! Its relaxed, retro feel and reverse color-work and illusion of shaping makes it interesting – both to look at and to knit. Kids 2 to 14 will love having such a fun knit!
Shown in fathom (blue) and citrus (orange).
