Darn in any loose ends, block and wear! This is anoriginalpattern by Rachel @FromEwe toYou,Lower Sackville,Nova Scotia,Canada MMxll http://www.fromewe2you.com SEEDY = 'Seed Stitch' gets its name from the texture of the knitted fabric — the little purl bumps look like scattered seeds. SWINGERS = Swing needles (hand-crafted birch needles by River John Needle Company) are large pointed needles with removable stoppers. They distribute colour evenly throughout a garment and prevent colour pooling or landscaping, the knitting should be worked from 2 balls of yarn.
