This DUO pattern is no longer availabe, however you can still buy both patterns individually. :)/Elida

The notorious kids duo includes:
• the notorious kids hoodie
• the notorious kids vest

The notorious kids hoodie:

Sizes: 92 (98) 104 (110) 116 (122) 128 (134) 140 (146) 152 (height of child)

Finished measurements:
Chest circumference: 68 (70) 72 (74) 76 (78) 80 (83) 86 (89) 92 cm
Length: 34 (36) 38 (40) 42 (44) 46 (48) 50 (52) 54 cm
Sleeve length: 25 (27) 29 (31) 33 (35) 37 (39) 41 (43) 45 cm

The notorious kids’ hoodie is knit from the top down and has a loose fit. The intended length is ”to the hip”. Both length and sleeve length are easy to adapt.

The notorious kids’ hoodie has a recommended positive ease of 12-18 cm. The sizes represent
the height of the child and fit a chest circumference of 50-54 (52-56) 54-58 (56-60) 58-62 (60-64)
62-66 (65-72) 68-74 (71-76) 74-80 cm.

My suggestion is to use a wool yarn of sport weight held together with a fingering yarn or a DK weight wool yarn. I have
made samples in Rauma finull held together with Jawoll sock from Lang yarns as well as 3-tr wool from Kampes.

Yarn amount (approximately)
200 (200) 200 (200) 200 (200) 200 (250) 250 (250) 300 g (175m/50g) (sport weight)

or
300 (300) 300 (300) 350 (350) 350 (400) 400 (450) 450 g (100m/50g) (DK weight)

Gauge and needles
18 sts x 24 rows = 10x10 cm in stockinette stitch.
5 mm circular needles 60-80 cm depending on preference and size.
5 mm circular needle 60 cm is used for the hood.
