Trilogy by This Bird Knits Designs. For this sweater I wanted a cozy, quick knit that could be worn everyday. I loved the first version I knit SO MUCH that I decided to knit a sequel, and another…..The option of holding different yarn weights either single, double or triple provide a unique opportunity to play around with yarns of different weights and colors and some serious stash busting! Have fun with this one! You’ll wear it often!
