Short, sunless winter days are made more joyful by woolen flowers wrapped around your shoulders reminding you that spring will come again. Dreaming Of Spring is worked seamlessly from the top down in the round. DK weight yarn and a cozy folded neckline help keep the chill at bay. Short rows are worked under the colorwork for a good fit in the neckline.
