Misty is a perfect first project to give a new knitter confidence. Warm, fashionable and easy to make, this uncomplicated design is made using garter stitch and gives an introduction to finishing techniques which gives Misty a professional edge. Knitted in garter stitch only and on medium sized needles, Misty is quickly finished but still looks accomplished and stylish (even for novice knitters).
