3D Sunflower Cardigan – Periwinkle

Cornflower blue and sunflower gold sit across from each other on the colour wheel, and that is why they hum together: a summer sky with the field still in it. Every square holds a raised bloom, each petal a fat popcorn stitch, so the flowers keep their shape and their shadow. Between them the crochet opens a little, letting the cotton blend breathe on a warm evening. Wear this cardigan over a grey tee and cream trousers, or a light summer dress. Relaxed through the body, it sits at the hip, with ribbing at collar, bands, cuffs and hem. Crocheted by hand, one square after another.
