Mulin refers to the babbling sound made by water flowing over rocks or when water boils in a pot. This sweater is made of nuppud, which are traditionally done in lace shawls. Here the nuppud dance across the sweater babbling about stories of a non-lacey kind!

Seamless set-in sleeve sweater knit from the bottom up with Estonian nupp bobble pattern on body.
