Love this pattern and can’t wait to try it! Where would I find the merino yarn you used?
I’m so glad you like it! That yarn is part of my own line of hand-dyed yarns and I am currently completely out of stock of most colors. I do have some available here: https://drewemborsky.com/store/items/index/7/worsted/
Love the patterns you have given us. I can’t wait to order the yarn and start a new project.
