Knit our Teddy on a Sleigh Jumper suitable to fit a child from birth to 3 years old.

Design:
The front, back and sleeves are worked separately from the bottom-up. Stitches are picked up to complete the neckline. One shoulder has a 3 button fastening to make it easier to lift the jumper over the child’s head. A chart is provided to complete the motif.

Sizes:
The pattern includes 4 sizes: 0-6m, 6-12m, 1-2yrs and 2-3 years old.

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

Stylecraft Special DK in shades Silver (1203), White (1001), Lipstick (1246), Camel (1420) Mustard (1823), Mocha (1064) and Black (1002)

Skill:
Intermediate. Written instructions provided, but experience needed to work from a chart for the motif.
