For anything to exist, you, me, the yarn we work with now, it relies on a whole chain of existence. For us to spin yarn, we need the sheep who grew the wool, the sun that grew the grass that fed the sheep, the farmers who tended the sheep, the wool workers who processed and dyed the wool; we need our wheels or spindles and the creators of those tools; we need our teachers who have taught us this skill; we need the energy to place into each ply that comes from the nourishment we have taken in; and to make this cowl, we need the designer and everyone who makes <i>PLY Magazine</i> possible.
  
Nothing comes into being by itself – it has to inter-be with everything else. We are not separate; we are all links in a chain; we need each other to be.
  
While you create this cowl, knitting each chain and linking them together to form a whole, meditate on all that brought you to this moment, see your life unfolding as a chain of events that has placed you into this beautiful practice, giving thanks and gratitude for all that is, knowing that you are part of that chain of existence and that you are also needed for all things to exist.

The front and back are worked separately, back and forth in rows, then sewn together at the shoulders. On each side of the body, stitches are picked up along the selvedge and worked outwards for a folded hem that serves as a finish for the armhole openings and the side slits. The neck opening is finished with I-cord, and the lower edge of the body is deliberately left unfinished.
  
The front and back are connected with contrasting-color side panels worked in the same pattern as the body, but left unblocked to emphasize the ribbed texture. The finished chest measurement is the total of the front width, back width, and two 4 side panels. The body side hems do not contribute to the circumference because the side panels are connected to the edges of the front and back along the hem pickup line, covering the hems.

The Final Volume, Volume V.

The Winter is officially over, and some feelings linger. After a long season of internal and subconscious journey, having brought feelings to the surface, they are now ready to be fully in the light. 
The themes of healing that permeate this collection correlate to the seasons, and Volume V is no different. To truly make a change, we must first see what there is to change. 
what better time, than after a winter of contemplation, and into the bright spring to plant the intentions of growth and change. 
The pine vest was born out of trial and error, love for the pine motif, and wanting an echo of all the work that was put in for the sweater, as an abbreviated version. 


I hope you love it as much as I do, and see how the themes of life can repeat, while also maintaining their own lessons and progress.
