Snow flurries are a beautiful thing in the wintertime. White flakes dance across the landscape in a magical way, making you instantly feel calm and cozy. Such is the case with the January Sweater. The yoke colorwork motif echoes those dancing snowflakes and our Nymph yarn makes just about the softest and coziest sweater you can imagine.
