The Yarn Barn Jacket

This is a quick knit -- all garter stitches multi-directional triangles. The fun part is you decide as you go. Each one will be different, and individual. We are writing down all we do so that we will have a pattern available for those interested.


All the time Runty was supervising from his perch:

Stay tuned.
