Customer Brag-Board Time!

A customer that lives in Seattle and shops with me when she is in Salem emailed me this photo of her finished project - I love it when that happens! The sweater is Minnowknits pattern "Sideways" and she knit it out of the super soft machine washable Minnow Merino. Well done Kathy and I hope I see you soon!!
