This pattern is in English.
Umma means 'mom' in Korean and Umma will hug you to keep warm just like your mom’s hug. Umma is also the mother of the Nabi and Narae, both patterns feature overlapping criss-cross detail across the chest and worked top down. The neckline is worked first, then new stitches are picked up along the neckline to create the iconic criss-crossed front, Then the back is worked until it is joined with the front pieces under the arm holes to create the criss-cross effect that leaves the slipover open at the front.
