Here is the jumper that starred in my recent blog post. It was, in theory, a simple pattern. But the multitude of mistakes and vague information in the pattern mean that I cannot recommend it. Bizarrely, now that I have peppered my printed pattern with corrections, I will definitely knit this again in future.
Next time, it will be a quick knit. It is a top-down pattern and the seamless design means there is no sewing and no bulky seams.
This jumper should fit a 3 year old child and will eventually go off to Operation Orphan. It is a sturdy little jumper and will definitely keep someone warm and hopefully be passed down to other children over the years.
Thanks again to Joanne of the Cup On The Bus blog for donating the brown yarn which I used together with some light blue 4 ply yarn.
(Note to self: the jumper weighs just under 250g and I have plenty of suitable Aran yarn.)
Lovely jumper! I love the little note to yourself too :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely little jumper Una, you will have to share your notes with us. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd feel a bit cheeky publishing corrections to a pattern by someone else. She might eventually get around to correcting the pattern on Ravelry. Is that a flying pig?....
DeleteThe sweater is wonderful Una.

It is lovely, but it is a shame that you had difficulty with the pattern. xx
ReplyDeleteIt turned out very cute -- you should be proud to make such a nice result with such an inaccurate pattern.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I will knit this again as it is very simple once all the errors are corrected.
