Swift Current’s less bulky weight bed runner version uses less yarn, smaller needles, and has a seed stitch border.

Inspired by strong currents along the Newfoundland coastal waters, the center cable design represents these churning waters, with the rugged rocky shoreline depicted in the seed stitch border.
