The Playground Pullover is a simple, rugged pullover that is perfect for all-day playing and looks great on a boy or girl.

Worked from the top down in one piece, the sweater is generous in fit so it layers well over jeans or overalls, and has a center cable pattern on the front that is reminiscent of traditional Gansey sweaters.

Finished chest measurements are 22 (23.5, 24.5, 25, 27.25, 29.25, 30, 32.25)“ --- plenty of room for growing!

The skill level is Intermediate: knowledge of top-down construction is needed as well as working cables.

Yarn requirements are: Worsted weight yarn, 350 (400, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650) yards

You will need 16” and 24” circular needles in sizes 5(3.75mm) and 7(4.5mm) and double pointed needles in those sizes also.
