Rubbish Mojitos - PDF knitting pattern

Travelling stitches march in perfect formation to the crown, taking just one sharp turn before coming together in a tight spiral. Their strong lines against reverse stocking stitch make the perfect canvas to show off a variegated sock yarn.

Pattern is written for three sizes, with charted as well as written instructions and tutorials for the alternate cable cast-on and cabling without a needle.

Available as a single pattern or as part of the Hatopia collection.
