I have had raves from everyone I have shown it to; your colour choice was awesome (as usual).
… the patterns are very clear and spell out specific techniques for things like decreasing etc. when they are important for the appearance of the project. Gotta love that!
It is my first knitting project and I have to thank Holli for making the pattern easy to follow and such fun to complete …
Holli is an incredibly talented designer who is as comfortable creating women’s cardigans as baby blankets. Vogue Knitting regularly publishes her innovative twists on the classics.
I was so pleased with how well written this pattern was cause I am always nervous to try out patterns from designers I’m not familiar with.

Inspiration for Philodendron
Teen television dramas are one of my guilty pleasures. I also love watching period dramas, in part for the costumes and the knitwear designs they inspire. Reign, a show that focuses on Mary, Queen of Scots’ marriage to the Dauphin of France, offers the best of both of my TV watching passions.

Shadow Wrap Short Rows
The Shadow Wrap Short Row method, developed by Alice Yu of the Socktopus blog uses one of my favourite increases—the raised increase, sometimes called lifted increase. One of the reasons the raised increase is my favourite is because it’s the most invisible and that’s also why it lends itself so nicely to this short row technique.
