Herons In the Snow

Special thanks to Marit (Mitt) and Sonata (Craftzone) for their invaluable feedback on this knitting pattern.
This delightful pattern is inspired by the exquisite drawing of birds by renowned artist Ohara Koson, known for his intricate depictions of nature.
In this unique design, the birds' legs, beaks, and eyes are beautifully brought to life through the use of the duplicate stitch, which adds a charming decorative touch to your finished piece. Only two contrasting colors are utilized during the knitting process, making it an accessible project for knitters of all skill levels. For this project, you will need approximately 50 g (200 meters) of each of the two colors, allowing you to create a stunning visual effect while keeping your yarn requirements minimal. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting, this pattern offers an enjoyable experience and a lovely result to showcase. Happy knitting!
