Pippy Park

CA$12.00

A collaboration with Hey Mama Wolf Yarns and Moeke Yarns for the MY Make Along 2019! Pippy Park is a sleeveless and asymmetrical layering top. The stranded colourwork is knit in the round and steeked; the striped and textured portion is knit sideways and flat. The essence of the sweater derives from Pippi Longstocking (a fictional character) and Pippy Park (Canada’s largest provincial park in an urban setting and is well known for its many recreational activities). The zig zag texture pattern embodies the popular snowshoeing trails in Pippy Park.
