Floral Tapestry Sweater
This is my first ever published design and I am thrilled to finally have had the courage to go for it.
The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted.

Finished Chest Sizes:
38 (42, 45, 49, 52) inches, 95 (105, 112, 122, 130) cm
This sweater is seamless and worked bottom up,
It is knitted holding 2 strands of Istex Plötulopi yarn together, making for a thick outdoor sweater.
The finished product is wonderfully warm with a 4 inch (10cm) positive ease to allow for a thin sweater to be worn underneath.
The Model in the photo is wearing the sweater with 4 inches of positive ease.
The original pattern uses 7 different colors but can be knitted using 3 or more colors.
The Band, Cuffs and Collar have a diamond-like design created by working an easy single stitch cable.
