Alice in Bloom is a top down, seamless sweater with a colourwork yoke, three quarter length sleeves that can be cuffed for just above the elbow short sleeves, and the option of a ribbed or plain body. The pattern has been professionally graded, test knit in all sizes, and tech edited. There is a schematic diagram included in the pattern.

NOTE: I’ve had some requests for charts for the multi colour version I made that you may have seen on Instagram, Facebook, or in my projects here on Ravelry, so I’ve added them here as a separate PDF. Please note that there are just a few minor tweaks to the original chart and while I don’t foresee any issues you should be aware that these were not part of the original pattern and I am the only person who has actually used the multi-colour charts -- they have not been tested.
