Warm Regards
Warm Regards sweater’s textured fabric seems almost magical—but the real delight lies in the construction. The body begins side-to-side, allowing the stitch pattern to flow like handwriting across the sweater. Once the texture is complete, the shoulder panels are knit upward, shaping the neckline. The shoulders are then joined, and the front and back are seamed to create a beautifully structured canvas. Finally, the sleeves are picked up and knit in the round, tapering gently from arm to cuff for the perfect fit. The result is a garment that feels like a story unfolding—each stage of the construction adding purpose, shape, and meaning.Whether you choose a single treasured skein for elegant simplicity or a palette of minis for a whisper of color, Warm Regards transforms yarn into something more: a wearable sentiment, an affectionate gesture, a sweater that says what words sometimes can’t.
Knit it slowly. Knit it joyfully. Knit it with Warm Regards.
