Rozkvit is on a special INTRODUCTORY OFFER at 30% DISCOUNT until the end of November. The discount is calculated at check-out and no code is needed. Rozkvit is also part of the e-book Polish Collection Part 2, which features 6 sweater patterns and 1 vest pattern and is also currently discounted.

The motifs on Rozkvit were inspired by the embroidery from the Opoczno area in central Poland, which typically includes geometrical shapes and floral elements.

Rozkvit is a top down seamless yoke sweater with a deep colorwork chart that uses flowers to create a playful motif. The neckline features corrugated ribbing and is followed by short rows at the back of the neck to create a comfortable fit. This is followed by stranded knitting that continues past the sleeve and body divide. The sleeves are knit in stockinette stitch, and has straight sleeves, with decreases occuring at the wrist. The cuffs and body are finished off in corrugated ribbing.

The pattern includes reverse colour charts.
