Choose Your Canadiana

> This design is a celebration of as much of Canada as I could include in 24-stitch charts. While it is definitely not an exhaustive list of what makes Canada a great country, it gives knitters an opportunity to create THEIR Canadiana. Can you make it if you're not Canadian? Well, of course you can. While this design is called Choose Your Canadiana there are plenty of charts for everyone to create something special. This is the adult version of the Choose Your Canadiana pattern.
