This is an Easter themed mini jumper. The jumper is knitted in the flat, and consists of a front , back, 2x sleeves and a ribbed neck which make up this pattern. It is knitted on 2mm needles using double knit wool. This pattern is for the white chick jumper and the white bunny jumper. The chick one is knitted in double knit wool and the bunny one is knitted in cotton double knit. Both patterns are slightly different to accommodate the design. As you can see from the photo you can knit these in other colour combinations. You can knit this project on bigger needles but the size will be larger. The wool I’ve used is King Coke Glitz, James C Brett Twinkle and Drops Safron all dk.. The size of the jumper is one size only. Length 3.5” and Width 2.5”. They knit up fairly quickly. Tiny amounts of felt are required for the chick’s wing and beak and the bunnies ears. These are sewn on after the jumper is knitted. A great idea to hang on an Easter tree or a few stitches put either side of the bottom opening of the jumper will hold a crème egg.
