Choose Your Own Fungi Kids
This sweater is all about customization. There are 4 sizes to choose from, instructions for long and short sleeves, 22 charts to mix and match and make it just right for you, and instructions for yoke only or full colourwork.
After designing the Choose Your Own Adventure sweater pattern I became enamoured with the idea of creating sweater patterns with a plethora of charts to choose from to make your sweater truly unique. It seemed fitting that the next design incorporated the Wee Fieldmouse, of which I am so fond. That idea blossomed into a forest floor theme with fungi, critters and flora. The colours I chose from Numana Yarns were part of my vision for an enchanted forest. The speckles and dots in the pattern make me think of the dust motes and pollen floating through the air, which can be a most magical sight.
Choose from the extra large chart of the wee fieldmouse or fairy, 7 large charts of fungi and leaves, 6 medium charts with frogs, snails, vines, ferns, and more mushrooms, and 7 smaller charts with dust motes, ferns and delicate flowers. This sweater is knit top down, in the round.
