RAAAAWR!! This dinosaur sweater is guaranteed to make your child the coolest kid in kindergarten! The sweater is knit bottom up, with raglan decreases and a hood shaped with shortrows, and dinosaur spikes along the back and hood. It is a simple design, suitable for beginners, but also interesting for experienced knitters.

It is very easy to customise the sweater to the child, as you can vary the sizes and colours of the spikes. It is perfect for using those small scrap yarn pieces, as one dinosaur spike only requires 3.5m yarn.

Gauge 22 stitches per 10 cm allows for a wide range of yarns to be used.

The pattern is available in both English and Norwegian.

Sizes are from 1-10 years, with instructions on how to make adjustments to ensure a good fit.
