Pattern Release: Cereus Sweater

After living in the desert for over two decades, it only makes sense that the landscape becomes a source of inspiration. My latest design, the Cereus Sweater, gets its name from the plant genus Cereus which includes about 30 species of large, columnar cacti (such as the Night Blooming Cereus).
