The As If Buff is currently being test knitted. Pattern will be released early December.

The As If Buff is my contemporary take on ’90s style, inspired by watching Clueless for the first time. Designed to pair perfectly with the As If Pullover or to add a playful accent to any outfit and your style.
The Double-Sided Plaid Pattern reimagines traditional colorwork by bringing the slipped stitches to the front rather than hiding
them at the back. The result is a unique knitted fabric where a series of dashes come together to create the checks of the plaid
pattern, adding texture and character to both sides of the fabric.
