Freya, the sister pattern of Fiona, reminisces an endearing morning stroll with my dad and my first childhood puppy, exploring through a trail of handsome dwarf trees and beautiful blooms. The slightly cropped sweater is worked seamlessly in the round from the top down, and has short-rows to raise the back neck for a comfortable fit. Be it with a dark or light background color, this beautiful stranded colorwork sweater is equally delightul to knit and to wear.
