Ailyak (Bulgarian) – the art of doing everything slowly with no rush, while enjoying the process and life in general; like the Swahili ‘hakuna matata’.

This pullover represents the beauty of slowing down and enjoying life in general, a reminder to see the flowers grow and stop to smell them. It is a round yoke pullover constructed from the top down. The tapestry colorwork in the yoke, body and sleeves will keep you interested during the process of making the jumper and the result is a striking piece of clothing that will elevate any wardrobe.

The pattern includes a free coloring page for you to plan your colors!
