What have we finished? Trickster by Elizabeth Doherty Gayle's Tricksters Hermione's Everyday Socks by Erica Leuder Gayle's Hermione socks Reflections by Meiju Kallio Do you know what types of garments and patterns you wear the most? Asking yourself a few simple questions can help you choose patterns that you will really wear. This is the basis of the Yarniacs Sweater Challenge, in which we take a critical look at the items we wear, and use that information to help us choose patterns that will fit our lifestyles, our bodies, and are comfortable to live in. #yarniacssweaterchallenge
