Moonflower
But I chose the moon
To follow my heart
To find my own power
To blossom in dark times
Now I’m me - a lucent Moonflower!

Moonflower is a pattern for a circular yoked jumper worked from the top down and in the round using the stranded knitting technique. There is patterning over the yoke, body, and sleeves.
This pattern is intended for knitters comfortable working with charts including extending patterning vertically from yoke to sleeves and also horizontally as sleeve decreases are worked.
Please see schematic for approximate finished measurements to choose fit you prefer.
There is no waist shaping in this pattern, but you may change needles sizes or increase sts at ‘side seams’ if you need more or fewer sts over waist and hips (you will need to adjust colourwork patterning if working the later).
