The dog days of summer bring with them sweltering levels of humidity, sunshine for days, and sweating glasses of iced tea. I conceived this design to combat both the ennui of these days but also to give hope for cooler days to come; someday, surely it will be colder outside. It’s relaxing to knit, featuring a simple stitch pattern, and very portable; you knit it in sections, which means you can tote just the panel you’re working on. Let me lead you into the air conditioning with this cute and colorful design!
