The pattern is available now at a 15% discount at www.wiseowlknits.com in February 24. The Wildflower KAL begins on March 1, 2024. Check out the Wildflower yarn kits from Mystery Mouse Yarn Co. and the Wildflower Project Bags from Delightful Works.

Wildflower is a top down, stranded colorwork T-shirt that is worked in the round. The sample above is worked in 5 colors of Frankfurt Fingering yarn from Knitty McPurly. I made size 2 and used 1 skein of the color Meadow, 2 mini skeins of Beryl (blue) and 1 each of Fantine (pink), Trinket (gold),
and Thistle (lavender).

Please feel free to make this your own! I specify 3-5 colors in the material list, but you can use more colors if you choose. Wildflower is the perfect vehicle for using your mini skeins. Gather up some contrasting, but complementary minis and your favorite background color and knit yourself a Wildflower!
