So far this is ‘the’ best knitting pattern I have ever found, learnt and made. Designed by Brooke Nelson, this wonderful pattern is easy to make and suits with yarn of every colour. Until now, I have knitted 12 pieces of Brooke’s Column of Leaves scarf and 2 sweaters applying this pattern. They sold like hot cakes!!! 🙂
Know the basics of knitting? You definitely can make this!
Happy knitting!!!
