May 2015 A few changes have been made to the pattern. Please, make sure you have the newest version if you downloaded the pattern prior to this date.

Errata: Chart A In row 67, 19th stitch from the beginning should be in brown, the star above this stitch should go down one square and start in row 70.

Size: 18 -36 months

Materials: Lilly Sugar’n Cream Solids 100 % cotton (2.5 oz/71g/120yd) - 2 skeins Warm Brown, 2 1/2 skeins White, 1 skein Jute, 1 skein Orange, 6 5/8” buttons

Gauge: 19 sts x 28 rows = 4”x 4” with US 7 needles

Notes:
1. To make a bigger jacket or if you’re using different yarn, you can increase the number of stitches by repeating the 12 stitches highlighted on the chart as many times as you need to. To make a longer jacket, increase the number of rows in White before and after the Moose and Flower motif.
2.The jacket is knitted front and back together until you get to armhole decreases.
3. The main technique for color knitting is Fair Isle. For Moose and Flower motif use Intarsia, you could also add this design later with a Duplicate stitch.

PS. Since this is the first pattern I put together, it may be not perfect. If you have any suggestions and ideas about how this pattern’s notes/charts could be improved, please, don’t hesitate to contact me :)
