Beautiful simple pattern yet looks intricate . Wonderful alpaca blend yarn. Fun!
Knit & crocheted swatches of "Soft Party" to give me an idea how the yarn works with either method. Was very pleased that the yarn performs beautifully with both. I plan to begin to use this yarn for several Christmas gifts!
