ZIZIA SWEATER

Inspiration

On my walks along the paths at the weekend, a flower always caught my eye. I visualized it and thought that it could clearly be part of a yoke that would combine the change of color and the cables to emulate the branches that join the different groups of flowers. This flower is the Zizia aurea and it gives its name to this pullover.

Sizes
