Twinkle of the Starlighter is finally done! (Done done, as opposed to mostly done like the last post on this topic.) So I can finally stop knitting it, and you can finally stop hearing about it 🙂 So the specifics. The pattern is Twinkle, by the prolific and creative Natalia Moreva. The stars are done… Continue reading Twinkle of the Starlighter
The knitting part is over – whew! Now just a little blocking, which I am going to have to do in two parts… and then a little finishing, and I am done!
