I name most of my designs after things in and around the area of Philadelphia I lived in (Mount Airy) up until the end of
2018. This design is based on my pattern called the “Livezey House Wrap”. Livezey House (also called Glen Fern) is an old
stone miller’s house in Wissahickon Valley Park built in 1696. It’s a beautiful and special place, and one of my favorites to pass
when riding my horse in the park. Glen Fern, or Livezey House, is located on Livezey Lane, so it seems only natural to name
this particular design after the little lane on which Livezey House resides.

FINISHING
Weave in ends. Your finished piece will have a V-shape and you will think, “Where have I gone wrong?!”. Never
fear - this is correct, and this is what blocking is for. Please see the “Important Notes” section on page 4 for
information on how to best wash and block this particular yarn and design.
