Works in progress: inspired changes

Many of us start patterns with changes and adjustments in mind, such as adding a bit of length or waist shaping, changing a stitch pattern or adding some texture.  But occasionally inspiration strikes while we are in the midst of working a project and those moments can feel a bit magical when the outcome results in something new that is just what we wanted.Theresa is very close to finishing a project that she made some tweaks to that we think were inspired!audreyThe Audrey Cowl by Pepperberry Knits is a stunning piece of knitwear.  The pattern as written has us use the skeins in the sequence shown below.plannedTheresa realized (before casting on) while sitting on the floor with her pup Lucy and all of her little balls lined up, that it just wasn't working for her.  She glanced over at her new Ribbon Street bag and thought "why not change them up just a little bit?"actualAnd look at what resulted!  Her cowl has a fun dynamic stripe pattern that used all of the kit's yarn in way that is uniquely hers.  She is very happy with her reinvented Audrey and is looking forward to colder weather or turning the air conditioning up super high to be able enjoy wearing this!We are continually delighted by how small tweaks can make a world of difference.  We'd love to help you make changes to a pattern that you've been thinking about working on but haven't started because something about it isn't quite right.  Stop into the shop and let's get started!
