ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
MOON + TURTLE | Knitting Patterns with Variations
Kiyomi and Sachiko Burgin’s Moon + Turtle celebrates it’s one year anniversary this week.
This popular compendium of gender-neutral designs offers contemporary pieces that combine unique details with classic knitwear styles.
Featuring playful colourwork, paired with simply constructed garments, Moon and Turtle is a fabulous step up from pattern books such as Knit How and Ready Set Raglan.
To celebrate the anniversary we’ve put together our top yarn suggestions.
I just wish I had time to knit them all!
