Goose Meadow Afghan CAL Branta canadensis
Starts May 25, 2019
Above is Stylecraft Special DK and Stylecraft Batik DK in Swiss Meadow
Branta canadensis is the Canada Goose and the topic and inspiration of much of my work. Every year, we’re fascinated by the spring and fall migrations, and many of them nest and take care of their young in the numerous ponds on our property. They are industrious, excellent parents, and provide hours of entertainment for us as we go on our daily walks. Enjoy creating Canada Goose Wings and Feet in your representative textural Canada Geese meandering through the pansies and tulip border, and sunning themselves in the Meadow.
Intermediate Level Work in American Terms; Tutorial will be in Separate Download

Pattern includes an extensive phototutorial and complete instructions for all aspects. There will be an additional Cushion Pattern in a few weeks.
Recommended yarns (I purchase at Wool Warehouse since their service is spectacular, relatively speedy, their yarn is well-packed and they care about their customers)
