All links to Ravelry are labelled as such. I try to include links to outside websites as much as possible. At this time, I am not including links for purchasing yarns, needles, etc. If I do, they will also be appropriately labelled. As a quick reminder: I am not affiliated with any businesses.

Mr. Kickass has been happily wearing the sweaters I make him since 2012. Which is why he keeps getting more.
This year he chose the “Dizen Sweater” (ravelry link) by Moira Engel. He prefers the fabric created by Miss Babs ‘Yowza‘ (ravelry link), and his god-daughter chose the colorway ‘River Severn‘ at the 2023 MDSW Festival. This sweater is being knit on 4.5 and 5mm circular, aluminum needles.
