Embrace the charm of delicate daisies, elegant roses, and simple posies. Choose from a bouquet of patterns to knit your own masterpiece with my floral inspired sweater. Let your creativity and imagination bloom with every stitch, with endless combinations, personalize your sweater to reflect your unique style. 

I love my patterns to have options to ‘make it your own’, where knitters can create their own design using different charts that are interchangeable.

Choose from a variety of floral patterns, or add a bee, butterfly, or lady bug for a bit of whimsy. There are 29 charts for you to choose from.

I have written this pattern as if you are using a single main colour and one contrast colour but the sample was knit with a 7-colour fade set by Baa-realis Fibre, where you get to decide when to introduce each complimentary shade.

  • A couple of the charts have been updated since testers knit their versions.
