Notes

Dawn learned to knit in order to give her hands a purpose when she became pregnant with her second daughter and had quit smoking. She usually knits hats and fingerless gloves because she enjoys the near-instant gratification those items offer! She knit this swatch while watching Ozark in her kitchen with the company of two foster kittens.
