Little Round Mirrors is a top down, circular yoke sweater inspired by one of my most favorite
songs by Harvey Danger. The yoke starts with some colorwork and stripes, then once the yoke
has reached the desired length the sleeve stitches are put on hold and the rest of the body is
worked. The sleeve stitches are then picked up and the sleeves are worked seamlessly to the
desired length. This lovely sample is knit in a springy BFL sock yarn from Republica Unicornia.

“And when you dream
You dream of a day
When you find something you could love half as much
As you love all your little round mirrors
See yourself reflected in one, there's a hole in the middle
You can't seem to fill” - Sean Nelson

Music is such a huge part of my life and who I am. Music has brought me through so many
rough times, and kept me going when I felt that I had nothing else. Sometimes, music was all I
had. This sweater is like a warm cozy hug from your favorite song.
