A basic jumper pattern knitted top down in one piece.

This pattern gained its name from the shoulder patches - Epaulettes are patches worn on shoulders to give an indiction of rank or purpose while in uniform. In this jumper they add texture and stretch to enable the jumper to be placed over the head of those children that just don’t keep still!

This item is knit in one piece from the top down using raglan shaping. The sleeve stitches are slipped onto waste yarn and then knitted after. In order for this to be knitted in one piece you will either need several different length circular needles or a longer one and use the magic loop method.

Suitable for advanced beginners.
