Love Hearts Slipover : Pattern
Love Hearts grew out of my love for early Fair Isle knitting Peerie patterns. Small but powerful and playful repetitive patterns which I had great fun placing between the classic OXO design and my own Love Heart, simply because we need more Love in the world right now.
