I made this for Charlie - My mischievous 4-year-old grandson!

    About

    I had already knitted this style in a smaller size for him last year. Charlie arrived with it over his arm saying "Granny, it's too small. Can you make me a bigger one and can I choose the colour?" How could I refuse 😊 He wanted blue and between us we chose the Rowan Hemp Tweed.

      Oh dear. My daughter is distraught. The jumper above has shrunk in the wash to a size that would fit a teddy bear😢 Looks like a new order will need to be placed and I'll have another project to add! We haven't told Charlie yet.😕

      Thank you Alison and Christine. The pattern is an old one (I think) - given to me by a friend a couple of years ago Sirdar No. 2024.
