Himiko
Introducing the “Himiko” pullover, a stylish and cozy design featuring a charming Acorn pattern on the lower body. This boxy pullover is a must-have addition to your wardrobe, perfect for both beginners and experienced knitters. Crafted from the top down, the construction allows for seamless knitting with easy shaping. After you cast on, the shoulders are elegantly shaped using German short rows, providing a comfortable fit.
The design incorporates both front and back pieces, which are worked separately back and forth until reaching the underarm. These pieces are then joined to create a beautiful seamless body that continues in the round all the way to the hem, showcasing the delightful Acorn stitch pattern. For the sleeves, stitches are picked up along the armholes and knitted in the round from the top down, giving you the perfect opportunity to customize the sleeve length to your liking. To add a touch of sophistication, decorative tucks are integrated before the cuffs, making the Himiko pullover as stylish as it is practical.
Finishing touches include a sleek 1x1 twisted rib for both the hem and cuffs, ensuring a polished look. All edges are completed with a neat I-cord bind-off, enhancing the overall quality and durability of the piece. Whether you're planning to wear it on a crisp autumn day or layering it for winter warmth, the Himiko pullover is the ideal knitting project that combines comfort and elegance. Discover the joy of creating this unique pullover and add a fashionable staple to your knitwear collection!
