Tula is a really fresh looking and feeling top. Knitted with our super soft Bamboo+ skeins, you will soon find that you want to knit more tops with it. The yarn feels wonderfully comfortable and soft.
Knitted in simple stockinette and garter stitches, very relaxing and this makes for a great first sweater to knit.
The front and back are knitted flat and the sleeve stitches get picked up and knitted in the round. While it is a simple knit, this sweater has plenty of appeal, the front and back are knitted in different colors as are the sleeves and again the ribbing, neckline and shoulders.
The pattern is fully written, has a schematic and a sizing chart for sizes 34" to 58" with a build in positive ease of 10".
