Flora Luft is a top down circular yoke cardigan that is fun to knit and perfectly paired with dresses, skirts
or jeans. The sample is knit in Woolfolk Luft and it can be made with any chunky weight yarn. The yoke is adorned with aligned drop stitches, the body is knit in reverse stockinette, and a fancy puff rib finishes the body. Sleeves are picked up and knit in the round and completed with slightly enlarged rib cuffs. Both the body and sleeves can be lengthened to your preferences. Lastly, there are two button bands to
choose from including the crochet loop or a traditional garter band. Flora Luft design is inspired by hummingbirds, how fast and beautiful they are as they dance from flower to flower bringing delight and joy to those they encounter. Flora Luft is a cardigan that can be worn and enjoyed in all seasons.
