Blath flower sweater

It is a playful romantic design, which features a colourwork pattern resembling stamens and petals, as if you are indeed wearing a flower on your shoulders. It also comes with exaggerated puffy sleeves, which are gathered at the cuff. If that’s not your cup of tea, a classic fitted sleeve option is also provided in the pattern. The pullover is worked top-down in the round.
