Description

The stitch patterns are easy to follow, and there’s a video tutorial for the Antler stitch included in the pattern. With a choice of color combinations, you can select your preferred color scheme – from richly contrasting colors to monochrome and gradients. Picture wearing it as a stunning accessory on cool evenings or wrapping yourself in it while snuggling up with a good book in front of a fire.
