Blossom Sweater
Introducing the Blossom Sweater, a beautifully designed knitting pattern that is perfect for knitters of all skill levels. This stunning sweater is knitted seamlessly from the bottom up in the round, featuring an eye-catching two-colored blossom pattern gracefully accentuating the belt area. The design begins with a contrasting color and incorporates a simple yet elegant 1x1 ribbing, followed by a beautifully mirrored colorwork section, ensuring a harmonious look throughout.
As you progress, you'll divide the front and back for the sleeves, which includes thoughtful short row shoulder shaping for that perfect fit. To finish the shoulders, a secure and neat 3-needle bind-off technique is used. One of the standout features of the Blossom Sweater is its lack of shaping decreases and increases along the body sides, creating a smooth and streamlined silhouette. This design allows the sweater to be worn with approximately 10 cm (4.0") of positive ease around the bust, providing comfort and freedom of movement.
For reference, the sample is showcased in a stunning green and grey combination in size S, alongside a lovely rose and grey version in size M, both designed for an 84 cm (33") bust. Whether you're looking for a cozy warm layer or a stylish statement piece, this versatile Blossom Sweater pattern is sure to become a favorite in your hand-knit wardrobe.
