Ulla Sweater
Discover the charm of Nordic knitting with this exquisite sweater pattern, expertly crafted using a traditional top-down, one-piece method. Designed to be worked in the round, this sweater features a deep ribbed rollneck and cuffs that add an elegant touch. It's important to note that the sizing provided is based on chest measurements rather than typical UK clothing sizes. This pattern is sized “to fit,” ensuring a snug and tailored appearance. If you prefer a looser fit for added comfort, we recommend sizing up for your ideal fit.
Sizes Available: To fit chest measurements of 75-80 cm (31-32 inches), 81-88 cm (33-34 inches), 89-96 cm (35-37 inches), 98-106 cm (38-42 inches), 108-116 cm (42-46 inches), and 118-128 cm (46-50 inches).
Needles Required: You will need circular needles in sizes 4.5mm and 5mm, and if you’re not using the magic loop method, a set of DPNs (double-pointed needles) for knitting the sleeves is recommended.
Suggested Yarn: This pattern calls for Aran weight yarn, preferably in 50g balls that yield approximately 70 metres each, such as Drops Alaska. Please note that Alaska is known for being a slightly thicker Aran yarn, which has a shorter metreage compared to other 50g balls, making it ideal for cozy projects. The yarn colors required are listed in sequence as they appear in the red version of this stylish sweater.
Color Guide: Colour A (Main color): 11(11, 12, 13, 13, 14) balls; Colour B (Mustard, as shown in the photo): 2 (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) balls; Colour C (Off white): 1 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) ball; Colour D (Olive green): 2 (2, 2, 2, 2, 3) balls; Colour E (Wheat): 4 (4, 4, 5, 5, 5) balls; Colour F (Dark olive): 1 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) ball.
