In a green green meadow purple avens stand out with their violet maroon stems and leaves. The flowers themselves are peachy butter yellow. They turn into burr balls that get caught in your clothes as you pass by. The roots are good for keeping moths away and also for digestion and other ailments. I live in a pharmacy that I am sure my grandmothers knew how to use. Now I need to learn all that myself.

Here are a few of the Purple Avens sweaters I have knit. Every time it comes out a bit different, but beautiful none the less. Pick a style from CUSTOM KNIT, and I will knit it for you.
