A top down, colourwork yoke pullover, it has short rows to raise the back, the pullover has a slightly deeper yoke but it could be easily modified by
working less short rows. The body has a boxy fit with no shaping and colourwork before the hem. The sleeves have two options, option 1 is a straight sleeve with minimal to no shaping and colourwork before the ribbed cuffs, option 2 is shaped with decreases to give it a tapered look
The colourwork motif is inspired by forget-me-not flower, i love the colour blue and it comes to no surprise that i love this flower! for the longest time i wanted a tattoo with this flower but since i can’t do that, i made it into a pullover!
