Level of Difficulty - Beginner
This easy to knit garment is suitable for beginner knitters. The pattern is written with colour contrast striping, but can easily be knitted all in one colour if you add one more ball of the main colour. The pom-pom tie can be eliminated if required.

The length of the sleeves and body of the garment can easily be adjusted to suit (just knit less or more rows as required).
