There’s this song by Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson … “They say that things just cannot grow beneath the winter snow, or so I have been told” and it inspired this design, with stitches that are light and beautiful, evoking a softness that sort of rolls in the way snow clouds do.

TABETHA’S TIP FOR KNITTING WINTER SONG
If you haven’t taught yourself chart reading, now is the time. It’s a pretty big pattern repeat, but the chart enables you to easily see the stitch pattern quickly.

BEHIND THE BRILLIANCE: TABETHA’S FIVE FAVES
Favorite way to spend a Sunday morning: Sundays are my morning to wake early (before the rest of the house), sip a hot cup of coffee, and spend time sketching and journaling. It’s quiet, peaceful, and creative.
Favorite knitting fiber: While I love Merino, I find that my hands delight in the rarer sheep fibers like Corriedale.
Favorite guilty pleasure: Shhh! It’s French fries and a Coca-Cola.
Favorite Holiday activity: My favorite holiday activity is sitting with my family, reading their new Christmas book and play a new game. Then, while the kiddos are laughing and putting their new Christmas jammies on, I sit back in front of the fireplace and knit, savoring the togetherness.
Favorite thing to wear in the winter: Sweaters, of course! I prefer cardigans.
