Shasta Daisy Tee - a knitting pattern

It is late July and the high mountain meadows are just starting to awaken. The grasses are turning green and little daisies are popping up in the bare spots of dirt. The high mountain peaks are still dotted with snow that is slowly melting to fill the meadow streams with fresh cold water. As you walk through the meadow you can feel the grasses tickle your knees and hear the bees buzzing from flower to flower and you know that summer has arrived.
