Garter-Stripe Jacket
Knit Simple is on the newsstands and I just received my copy in the mail yesterday. One of my designs is included in the Toggle Mania story.
The Garter-Stripe jacket has a series of toggles attached with i-cord to the wide garter stitch front bands which are worked in Noro Kureyon.

Yarn Bombing in Whistler
We took a quick little trip to Whistler on the Rocky Mountaineer train. What a great way to travel. Lovely views, tasty food and great service.

Noro Magazine X 3
