Pilo Sweater
If you buy the Pilo’s (pilo + pilodk cardigan + pilosweater) you get automatically 35% discount)! it should also work if you bought one or two of them in the past !
Notes: A child’s minimalist, basic sweater that comes in a huge variety of sizes. It’s designed for boys and girls, knitted seamlessly top down in stockinette stitch. You start at the neck with some flat increase rows for neck shaping, work increases along the raglan seams (optionally you can highlight the raglan seam with some decorative eyelets), put your sleeve stitches on hold and finish the body. Then you pick up your sleeves stitches and finish them in the round. That’s it! A very simple, top-down, beginner-friendly piece of knitting! It’s the sweater twin of the #pilocardigan.
We love to see your knits in social media. Please use #pilosweater and #ivnknit
