This beautifully warm jumper will keep your little one cosy on the coolest of days. Made in Aran/Worsted weight yarn it works up quickly and the length and sleeves can be tailor made to fit perfectly or be made with room to grow. Stretchy decorative ribbing, together with the buttoned shoulder, allows for ease of dressing and movement as do the shaping of the upper part of the sleeves. Squishy garter stitch sleeves are soft on delicate skin, picked up and worked from the body of the jumper; they are worked from shoulder to cuff, thus allowing for adjustments for the perfect fit. Making them longer and turning back the cuffs would give longer wear if you prefer. To top it off, the band of stocking stitch is a blank canvas to personalise however you like using easy duplicate stitching. Included are a charted alphabet and numbers.

Aimed at confident beginners. Knowledge of Knit, Purl. Knit 2 together, yo, and M1pw required.
