Aunt Maggie

I had the chance to meet and take a class with Maggie Casey. She shared quite a bit of wisdom during our chats but her #1 piece of advice for spinners is to knit with your handspun. From this inspiration, I designed this pattern to encourage new spinners to knit with their handspun and experienced spinners to dig deep and knit with some of the early handspun they never thought they’d use. To that end, this pattern is written for a variety of yarn weights, from Sport to Bulky. I knit the samples using some of my earliest handspun (pink) and some of my most recent (gray).
