DUPLICATE STITCH INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED: This pattern includes five charts for the heart, joy, tree, sailboat and “ho ho” designs to customize the front of your mini-sweater. If you have never done duplicate stitch before (this is how you add a design after the basic knitting is completed), the pattern includes detailed step-by-step instructions…with lots of photos!

BONUS – HOW TO MAKE WIRE HANGER INSTRUCTIONS: Make a cute little wire hanger to use to hang the mini sweater on the tree! Included in this pattern is a detailed one-page instruction sheet with photos to walk you through how to make a wire hanger. You will need wire and three tools: needle nose pliers, round nose pliers and wire cutters. You might have these in a basic household tool box or ask a jewelry making friend if you can borrow them for a little bit.
