Notes

Valar Morghulis. I had a lot of fun with this pattern, the lace instructions are well written and I used a basic bottom-up circular-yoke pullover recipe to adapt it into a sweater. I’m really in love with how the malabrigo colors work as dragon scales!

I’ll try to get a better picture in natural light when the rain stops…in a week or so but I’m really exited to wear this for Game of Thrones!
