So I took the five family crests I had for my family (in Japanese, a family crest is called a “mon”) and graphed the designs on knitting graph paper so that I could knit intarsia panels of the mons.

I'm afraid I don't have control over the digital copies of the Marble Cove series. I had thought it was available on ebook but it looks like it isn't.
