You’re one of the best designers I’ve worked with, and I appreciate your talent so much. I love this design.
I am definitely hooked on your patterns
This was such a fun pattern to knit Holli, and as always, I thoroughly enjoyed knitting one of your well written patterns.
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.
Holli, I absolutely loved testing your pattern and knitting this sample for Knit Picks. This pullover and your Five Point Bomber are two of my all-time favorite adventures in test knitting. Loved working with you!

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.

Diamonds Are For Everyone
Richly textured geometric patterning and a unisex fit make for a truly timeless pullover. The firm, strongly defined lines of twisted stitches form tiled layers across the body and run down the sleeves in a single line, grounded with smooth stocking stitch.

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.
