An easy to knit, seamless & versatile pattern for a unisex hoody/sweater.

Great for wearing out and impressing people with your knitting whilst keeping kids warm, or for playing around in the backyard.

Complete with a pick ’n’ mix of options - hoods, collar, pockets!

The Little Hoodlum is a seamless pattern (knitted in the round on circular needles) The V-neck makes it perfect to fit over a baby’s head and sits low enough to suit children who dislike wool sitting high around their neck.

Sizing for the pattern ranges from newborn up to 10 years (15-28 inch chest)

It can be knit in either DK (8ply) or worsted weight (10ply) as long as a 20sts gauge is achieved.

Now available to be bought and downloaded as an individual pattern as well as part of the e-book. If bought as an individual pattern please note it only contains the full and comprehensive Little Hoodlum pattern

The e-book is a comprehensive, detailed pattern with almost every imaginable extra possible! The new improved pick-a-path style pattern has so many options to allow you to choose your own way through the pattern, creating your own unique garment for a loved one.

The updated e-book now contains instructions for:

  • Contrast colour edge (designed for those that dislike picking up stitches, this is done as the garment is being knitted but is a skill for an intermediate level knitter)
  • Moss or garter stitch edge
  • Hood
  • Collars in either rib, moss or garter stitch
  • Wide or tapered sleeves
  • Cables in the raglan, kangaroo pocket or hood
  • Kangaroo or patch pockets

As well as exclusive Watermellish embellishment charts

  • Bulldozers
  • Daisies
  • Ladybugs
  • Caterpillars

But wait! There’s more!

Also included is PupPup’s Mini Hotshot pattern (for teddies), so you can knit matching sets for beloved teds.

Sizings for the patterns range from newborn up to 10 years (15-28 inch chest)

The patterns can be knit in either DK (8ply) or worsted weight (10ply) as long as a 20sts gauge is achieved. Information is also provided for substituting yarns of other weights.

The other 2 patterns in the collection are the Hotshot (vestee) and the Young Einstein (jacket/cardigan) - all which come with the same versatility and options. The v-neck on all of them makes it easy to pop on a bib for any little rascal or for bigger rascals that complain that they don’t like wool up around their neck.
