Tulipmania Sweater
The Tulipmania Sweater is a top-down circular yoke sweater that features tulips and diamonds worked in stranded colourwork. This is a knit project that requires a bit of concentration on the stranded part, but flies on the needles due to the easy repeats and the yarn weight used.
