    About

    I wanted to create a detailed image on a sweater in the spirit of Noel Fielding's wacky sweaters on the Great British Bake Off. Living in Southern California there are few cold days, but just enough to warrant having a few really cool sweaters!

    Fascinated by the decorative inlaid artwork during a visit to the Mission at San Juan Capistrano, I decided to use a Sacred Heart with Milagros as the central theme fro my design (Milagro means "miracle" in Spanish). I haven't decided yet what charms I might knit or embroider into the heart. The design will probably be done as Intarsia; I created the design using Stitchfiddle.
