A Checklist of Birds is a very pleasing catalog that lists the birds that are present in a particular region and when they’re around. This pattern takes that concept and puts it into sock form! Now you’ll always remember that Northern Flickers are common all year round in Victoria but that you’re much more likely to see Goldfinches and Rufous Hummingbirds in summer than in winter. This collaboration with Catherine at Gauge Dye Works takes the concept of the Checklist of Birds and roughly represents each month with two stitches so that a panel of 24 stitches is the whole year. When there’s a purl stitch, that bird is common that time of year. Catherine created an exuberant self-striping yarn to celebrate eight common birds we love here in Victoria, but you may want to do some stash busting and celebrate other birds too!
