myList.insert(index, element) question

[ChrisF]

Why does the "insert.(index, element)" function work backwards in this for loop when used in the context "myList.insert(1, myList[v])"? Instead of adding 0, 1, and 2 to the list to the "myList[1]" location during iteration it will instead add 1 to myList[0], myList[1], and myList[2] during iteration.

Used outside of the loop "myList.insert(4, 8)" it will behave as expected adding 8 to "myList[4]" location.

myList = [1,2,3]
print("This is my initial list: ", myList)
for v in range(len(myList)):
    print("This is v: ", v)
    myList.insert(1, myList[v])
    print("This is my list during iteration: ", myList)
print(myList)

myList.insert(4, 8)
print(myList)

I couldn't upload an image of my output, but here is a copy/paste view of my output.

Output:
This is my initial list:  [1, 2, 3]
This is v:  0
This is my list during iteration:  [1, 1, 2, 3]
This is v:  1
This is my list during iteration:  [1, 1, 1, 2, 3]
This is v:  2
This is my list during iteration:  [1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3]
[1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3]
[1, 1, 1, 1, 8, 2, 3]
