Knitting is often an act of collaboration — between the designer and maker, between yarn and pattern. That spirit infused this collaboration, combining Carolyn’s fresh approach to embroidering on knitting with Stephanie’s love of flared skirts. The result is a surprisingly easy knit that packs a huge visual punch thanks to Carolyn’s modern and masterful embroidery motif.
