This outfit consists of a pullover and skirt. I was going for a retro vibe. Something that might look at home on a 1950s school girl.

The pullover is knitted in parts, which are then sewn together. It features contrast knitting at the neck, hem and sleeves, which adds a charming splash of color to this outfit.

The skirt features rib knitting, which is meant to mimic the pleated A-line skirts of the 1950s.

Feel free to experiment with different color choices. This pattern is very good for that!
