Muka from ChrisBerlin is a fun striped women’s pullover with an unusual construction with vertical stripes knit from the top down. The front and back yoke is worked first. The sleeves are picked up and worked down to the cuffs in the round. The body stitches are worked in the round to the hem using a mohair yarn, and linen yarn held together throughout.
