Moonflower Pullover
About 3 years ago, I began to experiment with a little motif. A leaf, then a vine, then a flower emerged. They multiplied and marched in ranks. At last, I coaxed the little flowers into the circular yoke formation that has grown into this lovely, feminine sweater.
Tiny bobbles atop swaying stems and fields of smooth stockinette combine to create this uniquely customizable pullover. Choose from three sleeve lengths - short, bracelet or long - and opt for a straight or shaped silhouette. The Moonflower Pullover is worked top down from a rather low and open neck and includes both written and charted directions.
DID YOU KNOW that Moonflower is also available as a cardigan and a wrap? You can get them separately or all together as an eBook!
