The Tuulia sweater is worked bottom down seamlessly. First you work the back yoke flat and then pick up stitches for the front. Fronts are first worked separately flat and the neck opening is formed by joining the front parts together. Later the front and back are joined together to form the body and from here on everything is worked in the round. After the body is done stitches for the sleeves are picked up and sleeves are worked in the round. Finally stitches for the neckband are picked up and worked in the round.

The Tuulia sweater is designed to have approx. 10 cm / 4 inches of positive ease
