The Housman set was inspired by both technique and whimsy: how can I create a design that slowly introduces new concepts, but also feels fresh and new? The result came from one of my favorite answers: turn things on their side! Both the cowl and mitts feature a join-as-you-go construction, creating super wearable shapes that will keep you interested from cast-on to bind-off.
