Stichill sweater

This sweater is the result of a collaboration between Ross Farm, Destination Yarn and Shannon Okey/Knitgrrl for Maryland Sheep and Wool 2023. Jeanne from Destination designed sweater kit colorways for Ross Farm Cheviot yarn and Shannon's team (including tech editor Andi Smith and sample knitter Candace Musmeci) worked out a castle-inspired yoke sweater design. In keeping with the Scottish theme for this Destination Yarn collection I’ve named this sweater after a small Scottish village where several of my more... interesting ancestors lived. My 10x great grandmother Agnes Lamb—yes, that was really her name—beat up the local sheriff when he came to collect a debt, and her girl gang helped. This is all documented in the records of the local baron’s court! Perhaps she should have stuck to knitting instead.
