Olearia is a sweet little pattern just perfect for the changing weather. It features three interlinked designs or three petals; two variations of a cardigan and a shrug. All are seamless, knit top down and are deceptively simple to knit.

Sized 1 -8, (19 - 27 inch chest)

Olearia is a native Australian daisy bush.

Shrug: features all over gathering with short sleeves.

Cardigan Version 1: features all over gathering with gathered elbow length sleeves.

Cardigan Version 2 features a gathered bodice, a stocking stitch body and long sleeves with two different cuff options; gathered or garter.

The option of cap sleeves is also included. This is suitable for all garments.

Lots of variety to mix and match to your own desire.

As part of the bigger picture, Olearia is part of my Australian Wildflowers Collection, which also features Cassia and the Spring Wildflowers e-book.
