Criss-crossing stitches and triangle points, oh my! This year I’m delighted to be collaborating with more and more indie yarn producers, including the lovely West Coast Colour family. For the first time since I began designing, I’m really feeling like more than just a knitting hobbyist. It feels as though I’ve crossed over into a new realm of designing, and I’m loving every bit of it.

There is only one size in this pattern, but the design can be easily adapted to be larger or smaller by changing the number of section repeats.

70” wingspan
18” depth at deepest point

Please be advised that wool requirements and finished size measurements are approximate. Actual values may vary based on garment size, yarn, needle size, and gauge.
