Tua sweater

The Tua Sweater is an easy to knit raglan sweater with a high neckline, worked from the bottom up in Plassard Neptune. The knitting kit includes a digital pattern and yarn for your chosen size.

The soft blend of cotton, alpaca and mohair creates a lightweight and comfortable sweater with a timeless appearance. The simple stocking stitch lets the yarn take centre stage. The Tua Sweater is ideal for everyday wear, weekends away and cool evenings outdoors. Use the yarn selector to choose your favourite colour.

The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.

Knitting the Tua sweater

The Tua sweater is knitted in the round, which means that instead of knitting back and forth in rows, you’ll be working in continuous circles to create a seamless garment. Knitting in the round is an efficient technique that eliminates the need for side seams, giving the jumper a smooth, even finish.
