When you look around New Zealand you will see this jersey in every shape and form. It’s a classic. Teenagers wear it with jeans - often two sizes too big! It is almost a school uniform! Parents wear it as a fashionable country classic: children as warm and practical out-door kit.

This pattern is designed to be made with lumpy, irregular hand spun wool and gives 1 (kg) 2.2 lbs) of greasy Romney, Perendale or crossbred fleece as the starting point, rather than yardage.
