When I was a girl, I loved novels which were written about sisters - for example “Little Women” and “Little House on the Plairie”.

Kanoko & Momo are like sisters.
I imagine Kanoko is the elegant and stylish older sister,
while Momo is the bright and charming younger sister.

Please enjoy knitting them!

***
These patterns are knitted bottom-up, constructed by simple colorwork, knit-purl combinations, and some seed stitches.
