Knit your mischief-maker a Marvelous Mouthy Monster jumper! They can hide their precious supplies in the mouth pocket, because you can never have too many pockets.

Worked in simple stocking stitch stripes with one single colour charted intarsia panel, this mouthy sweater really does come together in no time at all.  Minimal shaping means this is an ideal project for trying colourwork. Of course you could always add the eyes using the chart provided using duplicate stitch, this would give the eyes more of a 3D effect, scary!

The mouth is formed from a pocket, which is knitted separately and attached at the back, making this a truly unique to any little terrors wardrobe.

Easy drop shoulder construction knitted from the bottom up and seamed.
