Nuppu is Finnish, and means a flower bud - soon to be blossoming! This cozy crochet sweater has a nice cropped hem length, which makes it a perfect pair with high waist skirts or pants. The design is at the same time cute and feminine: the back part has an intriguing flower detail, and the sleeves have simple lace panels from shoulder to wrist.

The pattern includes:

• Step-by-step written instructions
• Lots of progress photos
• Diagrams with explanations
• Size options XS, S, M, L and XL
• Tips on how to modify the design
• 17 pages

The hem length can be adjusted, as well as the length of the collar and the sleeves.

The sweater can be made without a collar, as the orange one in the photos.
