Delicate light pink pullover. A striking model with a loose fit and an original neckline trimmed with a scalloped border. Set-in sleeves, long silhouette and deep V-neck. The original composition of the pullover is 100% acrylic. For the summer period, I recommend taking 100% soft cotton, cotton with acrylic, cotton with viscose, cotton with linen.
For next fall — 100% wool, wool with cotton, wool with acrylic/polyamide/polyester. For knitting, we will need about 7 skeins — for a universal oversize 44-48 — light pink yarn: 100 g — 300-350 m. Knitting needles No. 3-3.5, as well as hook No. 3. Along the bottom of the pullover and on the cuffs there is a 1 x 1 elastic band (1 knit, 1 purl).
Knitting Pattern for a Light Pink Pullover
The diagram shows only the front rows.
The repeat pattern is 14 loops and only 6 rows in height. The diagram shows only front (odd) rows, purl (even) rows are knitted with purl loops. When knitting in turns, I recommend adding 5 more loops to the main number of repeats and starting the row with loops before the repeat, ending with the loops after the repeat indicated in the diagram. This is an optional condition, just so you will have beautiful symmetry of the pattern and neat edges.
Neckline and scalloped hem
Perhaps the main difficulty of this model is the neckline. However, it seems complicated only at first glance — everything here is quite simple! First we knit a classic V-neck, decreasing stitches on the front rows (or on each row if you want a wider option). We knit this way for about 5 cm, then we switch to the round neckline and decrease the loops as follows on both sides: 4, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1. The pattern is approximate, but I think the principle is clear.
Repeat of 4 chain stitches + 1
And the last point is finishing the neck with a scalloped border. Here we will need a hook. The pattern is very simple, even a beginner can do it.
