Here's a classic V-neck pullover vest for all the little scholars.
A relatively quick knit with minimal finishing, Pip is knit from the bottom up in the round and trimmed with corrugated ribbing. If you’re not a big fan of the corrugated rib you can easily choose a classic 2x2 rib instead without changing stitch counts.
Knit in DK weight yarn Pip makes a warm but light accessory for everyday, a special day, or even a school day.
