Flora is designed to be worked at an unhurried pace, one piece at a time.The ruffle at the hem is shaped through decreases and will settle beautifully after blocking. Sleeves are worked in the round, while the body is worked flat and assembled at the end.
Take time to check your gauge before starting and adjust the length before shaping the armholes if needed.

All measurements are given in centimetres.
Numbers in parentheses refer to larger sizes.
