This playful pullover has blocks of colour on the front that coordinate with the Fair Isle-like patterned sleeves. Corrugated ribbing ties it all together.
This pullover is worked bottom up in pieces and seamed together. It has modified set-in sleeves with a shallow cap. Stranded corrugated ribbing in two colours is featured at the hem, cuffs and neck edging. Colourful blocks on the front are worked in intarsia. Smaller sizes feature a button closure on the left shoulder.
Looking for big kid sizing? Avery Big Kid has been reworked with more sophisticated shaping and sizes for school-aged kids.
This knitting pattern includes written directions, a colour chart for intarsia stitch pattern, detailed yardage requirements for each intarsia bobbin/section, and a schematic with measurements.

Substitution Notes
Choose a fingering weight/4-ply yarn with easy care instructions. Superwash wool and sock yarns (whether wool or cotton blends) will work wonderfully. The self-patterning yarn may be substituted with a solid colour, a variegated yarn or a gradient yarn.
