Pull-ô-mousse is a cropped pullover worked top down and
seamlessly in the round. It starts with a small double neckband. Then, a few short rows are worked to shape the back neck.
The yoke features a fun colorwork with randomly placed bubbles. The colorwork is charted only. Don’t worry if you make mistakes in this part, nobody will see it :-D
Tips on how to successfully knit stranded colorwork are included.

The white bubbles on the body and sleeves and the blue bubbles on top of the yoke are added using duplicate stitch.

Instructions are included to work slow and quick gradients if you’d like to use up some stashed yarn and work gradients (fades) as in the sample.
