Our August 2023 knitwear pattern was created exclusively for Two Sheeps LLC by Tressa Weidenaar! (@tsinbikee on Instagram)
Tressa: "The inspiration was sunrise at the Golden Gate Bridge. I found a stitch pattern that looked like a suspension bridge, with its tall columns and connecting cables. The Golden Gate Bridge was a feat of engineering and ingenuity, which was why I chose to give this pattern the name 'Works of Ingenuity.' This pattern includes a hat in 3 sizes and a cowl. Enjoy!"
Tressa designed her Works of Ingenuity using 2 skeins of superwash fingering-weight yarn that was dyed exclusively for Two Sheeps by Kate McMullin of McMullin Fiber Co.
All (100%!) of the proceeds from the sale of this beautiful shawl pattern will be donated to DigDeep, a charity that Tressa has selected (@digdeepwater). DigDeep believes that all people, whatever their condition or location, have a right to the clean water they need to live in dignity. 🐑🐑💗
