Notes

Gauge: 4.0mm = 20 stitches x 29 rows (colorwork)
This design is pretty straightforward and easy to knit
I got 8” positive ease. It’s big and cozy enough for meblush

Modifications

  • Ribbing: Ktbl & P1
  • Split the sleeves & body: after 2nd repeat chat A. K5 rounds and cont. chat B shieldpattern.
  • Sleeves: pick up & K20 underarm sts, total 84 sts in M size. And decrease 4 sts back after the chat B. Cont. follow the pattern.

This pattern let me remember the old legend of Saint George when I was traveling in Barcelona, ​​Spain. Saint Jordi slew a dragon to save a princess and then plucked a red rose for the princess from the rose bush, which had sprouted on the exact spot, where the dragon’s red blood had spilled. This myth has been passed down and the Barcelona people have celebrated this day became Spain’s Valentine’s /Sant Jordi Day.

Therefore, here’s my color combo:
Black ▶️ Environment
Blue ▶️ Hero
Golden ▶️ Bright victorysparkles

I love my color choice with this wonderful pattern heavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornamentkissing_heart

這個織圖充滿了中古世紀西方的文化特色。令人不禁回想起遊歷西班牙時的巴塞隆納時聽到的一個古老的傳說,據傳在中世紀時,某一天突然出現一隻巨龍,破壞所有城鎮,並把公主當作祭品,準備將她吞下肚時,一名武士出現奮力博鬥,最後利劍刺入巨龍的心臟,而他身上噴出的鮮血流及的草地,竟然滋長出一朵朵玫瑰花,英勇武士摘下其中一朵送給公主,作為愛的禮物!而這天也成為西班牙的情人節。
