Tata Matilda is a seamless top-down sweater with colorwork and a round yoke.
This sweater is an explosion of spring flowers. Its peculiarity is the inversion of color in the design. Initially, the flowers are white on a magenta background and then become magenta on a white background, which will then be the dominant color of the sweater.
A few increases in the body construction give a slight A-line to the garment.
Tata Matilda is designed to fit with 2” /5 cm of positive ease at the bust.
