Barleycove Sweater
Welcome to the Barleycover Sweater PATTERN for babies and children to 7 years. Seamless and knit top down, Barleycove is a classic jumper design wth a colourful rib trim and a pocket for treasures. It is knit with double knitting yarn, so fairly quick to make. Unlike many top down designs, BARLEYCOVE has saddle shoulders, a great new top down skill to try.
Perfect for advanced beginners/intermediate knitters. Any issues? Help is available from me via email: my email address and other contact details are included in the pattern.
