Ulla dickey is the perfect winter accessory. It can be worn over a sweater as an extra layer on cold days or just over a blouse when it is too warm for a sweater.

Both yoke and shoulders are worked in a 1x1 twisted rib pattern which creates an interesting triangular shape. The lower part of the garment is worked in stockinette stitch. Construction-wise, the yoke is created using shoulder increases on every round. The front and back are worked separately until the triangular yoke pattern is completed.
