The Southwest pattern came about when I was at home in maternity leave with Ranja, but then as a vest. I wanted to make a super simple pattern where I could play with colors. Now I have made a quick knit sweater with round yoke. Which buttons you choose will help give the sweater a unique look. I often use reindeer antler buttons from Isogaisa.
