best friends in matching sweaters

Happy National Friends Day!

Celebrate National Best Friend Day on June 8th!

Team Twisted besties Parna and Emily celebrated 14 years of friendship (and restarting their knit nights after 2 years off!) by knitting coordinating sweaters in Brooklyn Tweed Tones
The pair chose BT for its commitment to domestic yarn, amazing colors, and heavenly squish. Then, because nerds of a feather flock together, they mathed their way to customized 1-skein-per-color rainbow stripes using BT's First Raglan Sweater pattern.
If a sweater feels daunting, find something smaller like BT's First Colorwork Cowl. You can vary the colors so each project is unique but complimentary - just like you and your BFF. Or, if your best bud has four legs and a tail, we've included an additional pattern suggestion below. ;)

Best Friend Sweater Images and Appa Kerchief

Oh you know it. We couldn't talk about Best Friend Day without including Emily's other BFF, Appa... who absolutely got her own matching kerchief!
