Lana Grossa Ecopuno Pullover – Model 36 from Filati Journal 57 (Downloadable Knitting Pattern)

This free downloadable PDF knitting pattern from Lana Grossa presents Model 36 from Filati Journal 57 — a classic, elegantly simple pullover (Pulli) designed for everyday wear. The pattern is written in German and offers instructions for two sizes, making it accessible to a range of knitters looking for a relaxed, wearable sweater with a refined finish. A standout detail is the integrated patch pocket construction, which adds both practicality and subtle design interest to the front of the garment.

Garment Overview

What Is Being Made

The pattern instructs knitters to create a pullover sweater worked in two main pieces — a front piece (Vorderteil) and a back piece (Rückenteil). The front features integrated pocket pouches (Taschenbeutel), which are knitted separately and then incorporated into the body of the garment at a specific point during construction. Armhole shaping is worked on both sides of the fabric. The finished sweater has a clean, structured silhouette suited to the soft, drapey nature of the yarn used.

Sizes

• Size 36/38 and Size 40/42 — instructions for the larger size appear in parentheses throughout the pattern. Where only one figure is given, it applies to both sizes.

Techniques Used

Construction Method

• Flat knitting — the front and back pieces are worked separately on straight needles and then seamed together
• Integrated pocket construction — pocket pouches are cast on separately (23 stitches each), worked for 6 cm (22 rows), then placed on hold; at the corresponding point on the front piece, the pocket opening stitches are bound off and the held pocket pouch stitches are inserted in their place
• Armhole shaping — worked symmetrically on both sides of both the front and back pieces
• Rib border (Bund) — a ribbed hem is worked at the cast-on edge before transitioning to the main stitch pattern
• Circular needle used for the neckband — a short circular needle is employed to pick up and work the neck finishing

Stitches Used

• Glatt rechts (stockinette stitch) — the primary stitch pattern used throughout the body of the sweater, creating a smooth, classic fabric surface
• Rippenm uster (rib stitch) — used for the hem/border (Bund) at the lower edge, providing elasticity and a neat finish

Materials Required

Yarn

• Lana Grossa Ecopuno — a premium blend yarn composed of 72% Cotton (Baumwolle), 17% Virgin Wool (Schurwolle/Merino), and 11% Baby Alpaka
• Yardage: approximately 215 metres per 50 g skein
• Quantity required: approximately 300 g for size 36/38 and 350 g for size 40/42
• Colourway specified: Türkisblau (shade no. 29) — a fresh turquoise blue

Ecopuno is a lightweight, breathable yarn that combines the softness of baby alpaca and merino wool with the structure and washability of cotton, making it an ideal choice for a year-round pullover with a fluid, comfortable drape.

Needles

• Knitting needles size 3 and size 4 (metric) — straight needles used for the main body and pocket pouches respectively
• Circular needle size 3, 40 cm length — used for working the neckband in the round
