A new pattern coming soon called Donnie at the Duck Pond, inspired by Donnie’s plunges and the shadows, ripples and color combinations of the pond:
The pattern uses clustered increases and stacked decreases, and is knit with Zauberball Crazy, in five botanical colorways created by Schoppel Wolle inspired by my color suggestions.
