Bring a little safari charm to your knitting with this adorable giraffe‑motif jumper, designed for babies and toddlers from 0 to 3 years old. Worked in DK wool, the sweater features a giraffe motif on the front, paired with double‑rib edgings for a stretchy finish. A button opening at one shoulder makes dressing easy and comfortable for little ones. Clear instructions and a chart for the motif guide you through each size.
Design: The front, back and sleeves are knitted separately. The front has a giraffe motif knitted using the intarsia method following a chart. One shoulder has a 3-button opening to make it easier to lift over the child’s head. You need to pick up stitches for the neckline.
Sizes: The instructions are given for 4 sizes: 0-6, 6-12, 12-24 and 24-36 months old.
Skill: Intermediate. Written instructions provided, but experience needed to work from a chart for the motif.
Yarn: The pattern uses double knitting wool (an alternative yarn for overseas knitters would be USA light worsted or Australian 8 ply).
Sweater shown in main picture is for size 24-36m and knitted using:
Sirdar Snuggly DK in shades Pastel Blue (0321), White (0251) and Stylecraft Special DK in shades Mustard (1823), Spice (1711), Mocha (1064), Black (1002)
Needles: Sizes 3.25 mm and 4.0 mm (USA 3 and 6) straight needles are required.
