Montana

The mountains and the plains unite to make up the landscape of Montana. While enjoying the outdoors here, you may stumble along a crisp mountain stream, a patch of deep purple huckleberries, or a field of lovely Bitterroot. The beautiful, simple Bitterroot flower is what ultimately inspired this design. This pattern is worked toe-up with an afterthought heel.
