Villa Pullover 2.0 (English)

€5.00

This is an updated verison of the existing Villa Pullover, but this variation has drop-shoulders, straight sleeves, wide twisted ribbing, and a chunky folded down collar. The recommended ease of the sweater is approx. 15 - 20 cm, depending on your personal preference. This means that you should choose a size with a circumference that is roughly 15-20 cm more than your own bust circumference. Of course, if you want a looser fit, you can go up a size. The gauge is also different in this 2.0 version, giving more yarn options.
