Zoria, also Zarya or Zaranitsa, is a Slavic folklore character – a personification of dawn. My design represents beauty and splendour of summer forest and meadow. I was inspired by the textures of tiny twigs, berries, grass and flowers and distinct light rays passing through the branches of dense woods. I desired to capture this abundance of wildlife in one, very textural, rustic project.


Zoria is a comfortable oversized pullover which can be easily transformed into an open front cardigan.


The pattern contains detailed instructions for making a pullover and an open front cardigan in 8 sizes, tips for modifying body and sleeves length and depth of the neckline, and two language versions – Polish and English. For your convenience, each size has its own file, with instructions only for the given size.
