Wee Wildflower
I am happy to tell you that the third pattern in our new Coastal Kids collection is now available!
Meet Wee Wildflower. The pint sized version of my original
Wildflower Cardigan from our book Coastal Knits!
The delicate details of this cardigan lend itself to a little girls size so well.
I love how this little sweater looks on my daughter.
It's lightweight and soft and just so perfect for a little springtime layer.

This is the same inspiration spot highlighted in Coastal Knits for the original Wildflower Cardigan.
So. Much. Fun.
