HUGGLES jumper

HUGGLES is a comfy, practical jumper designed to keep kids warm in winter, but still allow free movement for active play. The ribbed design means that it will stretch as the wearer grows to make the handcrafted garment last longer.

HUGGLES is knitted seamlessly from the top down back and forth until the button band is completed, then it is joined and knitted in the round. Once you have finished knitting you just need to sew in the ends and add the buttons.

A detailed pattern description is given for nine sizes of HUGGLES from newborn to 10 years. The main pattern instructions are for a single coloured HUGGLES jumper suitable for knitting by a confident beginner. For the more advanced knitters, there is a section describing how to include a contrasting coloured band and guides for three different stripe widths for each size. Creative knitters can use the pattern as a base to add whatever colour and striping combinations they dream up – the possibilities are endless!
