The perfect knitting pattern to cement your circular knitting skills - and create a stylish jumper too!

This pattern is the perfect introduction to get knitting in the round. Knit purely on circular needles means that there is no sewing up for this pattern, which means you can wear your jumper straight away!

This jumper is so comfortable to wear and goes with everything. It has a slight cinched in waist and gentle balloon sleeves, and fits true to size. The pattern covers sizes 6-28 and you can choose what length you want to knit to. We’ve knit it in ultra cropped and waist-length but feel free to knit longer - you’ll just need more yarn.

This pattern is a great introduction to circular knitting if you’ve not done it before, and is a straightforward pattern using just knit & purl and M1 (make 1) which is all explained in the ‘how to knit’ guide included with your pattern.
