Wild Posy { Flora & Luna}
This sweet little jumper comes in two versions: Flora (with the lace) and Luna (with the texture)
Knit in two strands of Plötulopi, this cropped jumper will knit (almost) on its own. It doesn’t weigh anything, yet it is so warm and woolly!
Choose the versions that you like the most (or choose both!), pick your Plötulopi colorway and cast on!
Both versions are really addictive to work on. And if you like to knit with Plötulopi, be ready for rounds and rounds of sheepy goodness!
The sweater is intended to be worn quite close to the body, so choose a size that is as close to your actual bust as possible. The sleeves are even more fitted (the cuff as close to 0 ease), so make sure that you take that into consideration if that’s the fit that you are looking for.
And last but not least, Wild Posy has been designed to be worn as a cropped sweater, so if you would like to make a hip-length version, please consider getting an extra plate of yarn.
