Made up of a mish-mash of stitches, the Magpie Jumper has a fun construction where the front and back pieces are knit sideways to create vertical panels of moss stitch, lace chevron and knit & purl diagonal stripes.

The inspiration for the Magpie Jumper comes from the amalgamation of many stitch patterns available which create the textured fabric. With puffy oversized sleeves knit in a double moss stitch and a neat 1x1 rib hem and neckband this jumper has a lovely cropped fit.
