Kawung Pullover__ Batik Kawung Inspired Colorwork Pattern

This is the second version of Kawung Pullover. It has a whole different construction, gauge, and finishing, the only same part is just the colorwork pattern. Like the old version, Kawung Pullover_2 is inspired by one of the batik patterns, “Kawung” from Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The shape of Kawung itself is generally considered to be inspired by a kawung fruit or known as kolang-kaling (palm fruit) split in half.

This pattern is sold with the kit in my online shop, because the previous one already sold out, I got a lot of requests to make it again. So, here is my answer to sell the better version.
