You are an awesome designer. Thanks so much for working so hard for us. I’ve knit a number of your sweaters and find they always turn out and look wonderful.
It is my first knitting project and I have to thank Holli for making the pattern easy to follow and such fun to complete …
It really is a cute little kid’s knit and Erika is wearing it again today. That’s 3 times this week. That’s already more than some sweaters have ever been worn.
Your patterns are lots of fun to knit, and the finished sweater is always awesome.
Again, thank you … for writing such wonderful patterns!

Knitting Under the Sea
Get ready to dive deep into the ocean without getting wet! This virtual weekend of “Knitting Under the Sea” will be a fun-filled voyage where you’ll master mermaid-worthy stitches, craft a tiny crab, learn about kelp forests from an emerging expert, and prepare blackened fish tacos.
My session is Go Fish Duplicate Stitch Party!
Pattern
5 Point Bomber
The 5 Point Bomber features bold colour blocking and narrow stripes, which are inspired by Canada’s iconic Hudson Bay Company blankets. The wide contrast waist slides perfectly into a kangaroo pouch pocket, adding a flattering visual effect.
