Design

The jumper has a motif to the front of a Christmas tree complete with baubles and a pompom tree topper. The front, back and sleeves are knitted separately on straight needles and sewn together. Stitches are picked up to complete the neckline. The baubles are knitted separately and sewn on to the edges of each branch and a small pompom completes the top of the tree.

Yarn

The pattern uses double knitting wool (an alternative yarn for overseas knitters would be USA light worsted or Australian 8 ply).

The picture shows the jumper knitted for size 4-5 years using Stylecraft Special DK shades: Green (1116), White (1001), Red (Lipstick 1246), Brown (1004) and Mustard (1823).
