Villainous Mini Sweater Ornaments
Across nine epic saga films, Star Wars has given us some truly unforgettable villains. Darth Maul and his black facial tattoos, Darth Vader with his legendary ventilator mask, the iconic stormtrooper helmet, Kylo Ren’s evil mask inspired by his grandfather’s, fan favorite Boba Fett’s durasteel armored helmet—these sybmols represent villains who are masters of inspiring fear and awe in the hearts of Galactic citizens. Now you can, too, by gifting one of these adorable mini sweater ornaments to the Star Wars-loving friend—or enemy—of your choosing.
These tiny pullover ornaments are all worked identically, with unique duplicate stitching added after the knitting. Worked from the top down with traditional raglan increasing, the body and sleeves are separated, then the body is worked in stockinette and edged with 1x1 ribbing. The sleeve stitches are then picked up and worked in the round. This quintet of baddies is perfect for gift toppers, ornaments, or to hang in your cubicle as a reminder not to head toward the dark side.
