This pattern reminded me of summer as a child- softball and the competition kids have in mixing ALL the sodas and outdoing each other on how “Delicious” theirs tastes.
This is a great pattern to use up those wild yarns you don’t seem to like by themselves- or the small skeins that won’t make a pair of socks on their own. Pattern looks equally good in solid, striping, and, or variegated yarns.
