Unicef Pullover is inspired by, and made and designed for, all the children of the world. The total sales of this pattern will be donated to Unicef and their work for the world’s children.

Unicef Pullover is worked from the top down, has a circular yoke construction, and a charted Fair Isle pattern of children holding hands around the yoke. You start working back and forth to create the split at back neck, before continuing in the round for the yoke and body. The pullover is shaped with German short rows at the neckline and underarms, and you both start and finish the pullover with ribbed edges. The pullover is worked using 1 strand of Merino in two contrasting colorways. The back neck split is closed with 2 buttons.
