Plum Blossom by Alison Green

Craft: Crochet

Floral lace motifs shine in Plum Blossom, a swingy crochet swoncho made in Berroco Tillie yarn. Combining the relaxed fit of a poncho with the comfort of a sweater, this layer features a delicate, floral lace yoke for a touch of flair. The relaxed silhouette offers effortless movement and elegance, creating a modern twist on a timeless classic. Crocheted seamlessly in the round from the top down, Plum Blossom is an engaging project that will be a statement piece in your handmade wardrobe.

Yoke patterns are both charted and written out.
