Oulu Sweater

Digital Knitting Pattern

Oulu Sweater is worked from the top down with a circular yoke featuring an interesting pattern. Short rows are worked in the back before the yoke, while the body and sleeves are worked in the round on circular needles and finished with ribbed edges.

Oulu Sweater is inspired by the summer paradise of Oulu in Finland, and if you look closely, you may spot quite a few O’s in the pattern.
