This top-down jumper has many colourwork charts with some additional and optional motives. Some wonderful motives (crown, guards and the black cab) were added by the amazing Stasia Stasiacrochet ♥️

The pattern has been tech edited but be careful, it has not been tested.
During the process of making the pattern I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Writing and grading the pattern felt too much and I was aware of the responsibility that comes with it. I realized that I do not have enough energy and desire to polish and finish the pattern. I am giving it here for free, this decision pushed the black cloud over my head away and I am really happy to share the pattern with you.
