Some days you just want a simple knit; a piece you can knit over and over again as your little ones grow. This top down jumper has cosy double neck bands and cuffs (perfect for those chilly days) and a straightforward, but effective, raglan detail. It can be knit in a single colour or personalised with stash-busting stripes or patterns.

Yarn

DK yarn of your choice.

129, (147, 166, 182, 226), (271, 306, 360, 407) grams
297, (337, 382, 419, 519), (623, 703, 827, 937) metres

The sample uses Sirdar No.1 DK in glow (100 g = approx. 230 m / 251 y).

Sizing

3mths (6mths, 12mths, 18mth, 2yrs), (4yrs, 6yrs, 8yrs, 10yrs).

The jumper is designed with a 10cm positive ease on the chest measurement. Therefore, for a more accurate sizing measure the chest circumference and add 10cm (4inches). Pick the chest measurement below that is closest to that number and make that size. The finished garment and sleeve length can be altered; just remember that adding length will require more yarn than the pattern specifies.

Finished Chest Circumference

50.5, (53, 56, 58, 63), (68.5, 73.5, 77, 81) cm
20, (21, 22, 23, 25), (27, 29, 30, 32) inches

Klys is the Cornish word for cosy and this jumper definitely makes you feel all snug when wearing it. Perfect for wrapping up warm, finding a snug spot to enjoy the view with a hot chocolate in hand. Enjoy x
