Villa Pullover (English)
This pullover is designed after Pippi Longstocking’s anorak in her show, from the episode The First Snow. The original design is a loose anorak with a v-neck. This variation is intended to be more feminine and fitting.
The Villa Pullover is knit top-down purely in stockinette. First the back is worked back and forth, then stitches are picked up for the shoulders before increasing for the neckline and then joining the front piece. Increases for the armholes are made, then the back and front pieces are joined. The pullover is from this point worked in the round. Throughout the entire pullover, the pippi stitch is incorporated, rotating between two colors: red and blue. Italian bind off is used for all binding off.
