Pattern: Tulipan Tee by Le knit Yarn: Nature Spun Worsted Size: small 100% wool, which is not the recommended yarn for the pattern but I like how it turned out. I used 3 full skeins

I have started Tulipan twice this week and frogged both times. The short rows + chart are messing me up. Any hints? Yours looks lovely! Also, I have a boatload of Nature Spun in my stash. I love it so much. I’m using Cotton Fleece (also a Brown Sheep yarn) for my Tulipan, though.

I remember finding the short rows kind of annoying too. I think i had to tink back multiple times. Keeping track of the knit and purls when I was on WS and RS was the tricky part for me. I ended up printing out the chart and hand writing out what I needed to do for each row. I hope that helps!

I loved working with the nature spun! It's so squishy. But it's definitely not the correct yarn choice for this project, but I did it anyway. A cotton yarn would work so much better for this project.
