Traditional men’s (genderless) version is here: Musubu.

This pattern has been professionally edited and test knitted.


“Tsunagu” - to connect - is a circular yoke pullover with a simple geometric pattern. It suits casual outfits and matches men’s version “Musubu”.
The pullover is worked from the top down seamlessly. After several short rows, the yoke is worked in the round with a geometric pattern in stranded knitting, and the sleeves are set aside at the underarm. The lower body is knitted straight in one piece in the round, and a small pattern is added above the ribbing. Finally, sleeves are worked top-down in the round, with a tiny pattern around the cuff.
