Sunflower Jumper

Inspired by sunflowers opening up to the sun, this sweater will make you feel as bright as those flowers. Whether you wear it at your shoulders or around your neck as a cowl; it will be a striking new piece to your wardrobe. The construction is purely from granny motifs that can be joined as you crochet or joined once they are all complete. Big Thank you to Rebecca for crocheting the sweater and to Megan for being so nice to model it for me. Thank you so much you guys! I really appreciate you both so much!
