Flower Garden Sweater PATTERN - Dream

This listing is for the pattern only. After checkout, you will receive a digital copy of the pattern by email.  The body of this sweater is worked in two pieces: the front panel and back panel. Each panel is knit flat from the bottom-up. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up from the body and worked in the round from the shoulder to the cuff. Both body panels and sleeves feature stranded colorwork throughout. If you would like to buy the full DIY Kit for this style, you can do so here.
