Windows Wrap

Before Covid-19 kept us all at home, I was lucky enough to be able to travel extensively and frequently, finding inspiration for my designs. I hope that I will be able to do so again in the future.

Ancient towns and their buildings have been a source for patterns, including this one, which features repeating rows of windows. Two slip stitch patterns and a garter eyelet stitch pattern form the design, creating an interesting play of color with textural changes. It is a relatively easy knit.
