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.
Holli’s patterns are really well documented and she’s very generous with the information that she gives on her documentation.
… 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!
The pattern is so well written, love it!
I am definitely hooked on your patterns

Bespoke Cardigan
I gave the gift of a bespoke cardigan pattern to my stepfather, Nigel. Featuring details of his choosing, I wrote a pattern for him to knit in exactly his size. Then I sized the pattern to fit 28-68″ inch/71-172.5 cm chests, and that is what is available here. Bespoke is a deliberately and thoughtfully gender- and size-inclusive design, featuring options for narrow and broad shoulders, and regular and tall lengths.

Stretchy Twisted Bind Off for Ribbing
This is my latest favourite way to bind off for toe-up socks. There’s a spring built into this bind off that allows it to stretch over the heel when pulling on socks.
And I’ve got to say, I really quite like the zigzag effect when viewed from above.
