Wild Vanilla








I am pleased to say that the next design in the Spice Girls 2 series is now live.
Please welcome Wild Vanilla!
I worked with one of my most favorite yarns to create this design, Traveller from Verdant Gryphon
The pattern is very yarn friendly and most of the sizes (up to 9-10) can be made with only 2 skeins of yarn.
I am very excited about this design! The selection of colors is amazing, and the yarn is divine.

Wild Vanilla is worked as a top down raglan cardigan/vest; the design offers a few small interesting twists in the otherwise simple construction, thus providing an engaging knit to knitters of all levels of experience. This piece makes such a great layering garment for everyday wear and school, a must in every busy girl’s wardrobe.
