Loves me… loves me not… loves me! The Wishflower sweater features a colorwork dandelion design around the waist, and little wind-blown seed sprinkles throughout the arms and yoke. This sweater is knit bottom-up with a raglan-style yoke.

Sizing
I have provided instructions for 6 finished chest measurements: 32”/81cm (37”/94cm) (42”/107cm) (47”/119cm) (52”/132cm) (57”/145cm). Choose a size that will give you between 0 and 5”/13cm of positive ease.

Total length of the top ranges from 19”/48cm for the smallest size and 23”/58cm for the largest size, though length can easily be adjusted shorter or taller when knitting the body.

Yarn needs
Fingering-weight yarn
-750 (900, 1050, 1200, 1350, 1500) meters in main color (shown in navy blue)
-150 (200, 250, 300, 350, 400) meters in contrast color (shown in pale violet)
