Kid's Christmas Pudding Jumper

Looking nearly good enough to eat, this festive jumper is knitted in the round. It features all-over fruity bobbles and an icing yoke, worked from a chart and then decorated with a sprig of holly. Body and sleeves are worked separately in the round up to the underarms and are then joined to work the yoke. Techniques include working in the round, stranded colour work from a chart, bobble stitches, increases, decreases and grafting (Kitchener st). This pattern is in multiple sizes to fit a chest from 56cm/22in up to 76cm/30in. Pattern includes a full list of abbreviations, schematic, colour chart and a printable page for your notes.
