When was the last time you took your shoes off and felt
the ripple marks while walking down the seashore? To
be sure—the Liedags sweater will take you on a walk
like no other. The short rows “shells” mimic the ripples
on the beach, while the sideways construction together
with back loop stitches is like nothing you’ve seen before.
May this crochet journey be full of stunning surprises and
exciting short rows paths!
