Ariel Mermaid sweater

Inspiration

Knitting is a beautiful craft that allows you to create vibrant garments in three dimensions. This unique quality provides endless opportunities to incorporate textures that bring life and movement to our creations, especially when crafting for our precious little ones. With this enchanting mermaid sweater pattern, not only will you wrap your child in warmth, but you’ll also ignite their imagination. The mermaid's tail, braid, and arms come to life, transforming into a delightful doll seamlessly integrated into the sweater itself, making it a whimsical addition to any child's wardrobe.

Sizes

This pattern is available in a wide range of sizes suitable for children aged 2 through 16 years. However, since every little one grows at their own pace, we encourage you to refer not just to their age but also to the specific bust measurements. The bust width measurements are as follows: 34 (36, 39, 41, 44, 46, 49, 51) cm / 13.5 (14.5, 15.5, 16.5, 17.5, 18.5, 19.5, 20.5) inches. This ensures a perfect fit for your young ones as they play and grow.

Construction Notes

The construction of this adorable mermaid sweater begins at the back. You’ll start by knitting from the back of the neck and work your way down through the entire backside. After successfully completing this section, you will pick up stitches to knit the front part from the top down. Once you master shaping the neckline, the enchanting mermaid pattern will be worked in a top-down manner. It’s important to note that the mermaid motif remains the same size across all patterns, strategically centered in each size for an eye-catching look tailored to your little one.
