Nivalis is inspired by snowdrops, the first spring flowers coming from under the snow. The pullover is worked top-down in the round with a floral pattern around the yoke. The colourwork pattern can be worked as a simple stranded colourwork or as a more intricate pattern of floats. To get as close to a prefect fit as possible the pattern comes in 18 sizes!
