I didn’t have a recipient in mind, I just needed something to do while on a trip. And I wanted to see how Stripes worked out in this pattern. Pretty cool actually, a pleasing color scheme and a nice knit.

testing out an older pattern I created!
I modified this pattern to be smaller since he was a preemie. I also carried a strand of Bernat Softee to make it use more of the color out of the booties that went along with it as a gift. I omitted the pompom and the top looked beautiful without it.

It uses right twists (RT) to create a cool line through the pattern that reminds me of willow branches. Update, 2/18/08: I have one of these done in Westport, and I’m working on improving the pattern again so that RTs…
