A floral doesn't have to be sweet to be beautiful!

Just imagine a deep teal sweater with flowers climbing only the lower half, like a border on a good piece of pottery. Now stop imagining, because that's exactly how this one is printed — quiet at the shoulders, generous at the hem.

• A Border, Not An All-Over
  The florals rise from the hem and cuffs and fade before the shoulder. That placement keeps the attention low and the neckline clean, which is far more flattering than a print scattered everywhere.
• Deep Teal Ground
  Teal is a rich, grown-up colour that carries pattern beautifully. Against it the lilac and white blooms read as delicate rather than busy.
• Textured Waffle Knit
  The stitch shows through the print, so the flowers sit in the fabric rather than on top of it. It's the detail that stops a printed sweater looking like a T-shirt.
• Relaxed Through The Body
  The cut skims instead of clinging, with a dropped shoulder and a gently curved hem that sits just past the hip. Take your usual size for the easy drape you see here, or go one up if you like a little more room. It comes in S through 5XL, and the shape is drafted for each one rather than simply scaled up.
• Dressed Up Or Down
  It's at home with jeans on a Saturday and with a dark trouser and a chain for lunch out. That range is rare in a printed piece.

Patterned knits often end up saved for a particular kind of day and then forgotten. The border here keeps this one wearable — calm where it counts, lovely where it shows — and that's why it keeps coming back around.
