Harvest Flower Sweater
I love the modern graphic look of Harvest Flower Sweater by Jessie Maed Designs! The Harvest Flower Sweater is a stranded colorwork sweater with a retro folk floral yoke motif. The Sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down with short row yoke shaping. The pattern is size inclusive up to 60″ bust, and would be great made with Cascade 220 Superwash.
Techniques: German short rows, two and three-color stranded colorwork, catching floats, knitting in the round, increasing, and decreasing.
Notes: Pattern includes two chart options (one as photographed, and one with a simple pixelated mound motif replacing the second set of flowers,) along with shorter yoke versions for both charts.
