Notes

Love the floral pattern heart
The sweater turned out a bit snug around the shoulders due to the floral pattern (there are no increases between the flowers).

The yarn is a dream! It’s rather warm and the silk gives a rustic feeling

Main needle (gauge) 2.75
Ribbing needle - 2.25
Colourwork - 3.0
