Sparkling Star

Knitted in a chunky yarn, this jumper features a bold star motif in a metallic yarn for extra impact. It is created using a mixture of techniques - stranded for the stitches around the star and intarsia for the star itself. The jumper is worked flat from the bottom up with minimal shaping. Techniques include knit and purl stitches, intarsia and stranded colour work from a chart, increases and decreases, picking up stitches and working in the round (for the collar). This pattern is in multiple sizes to fit a bust from 81cm/32in up to 127cm/50in.

Pattern includes a full list of abbreviations, schematic, colour chart and a printable page for your notes.
