Notes
- This is a long Guernsey worn down over the hips.
- This was traditionally knitted in Navy blue, but red and cream have been popular in recent years.
- Although traditionally made ‘in the round’, when working in this scale it is easier to work the pieces flat and sew them together.
The underarm gussets may be omitted if desired.
