Pattern Notes: This intricate design includes important chart notes for successful knitting. The chart repeat consists of an ODD number of rows, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the fairisle technique. For the body sections, during the first repeat of the chart, the odd-numbered rows are considered right-side (RS) rows, while in the second repeat, they will shift to become wrong-side (WS) rows. The sleeves have a reversed pattern; in the first repeat, the odd-numbered rows are WS rows, and in the second repeat, they revert back to RS rows.
This charming fairisle sweater is perfect for knitters looking to challenge their skills while creating a delightful piece that children will love to wear. Its timeless design ensures that it will be cherished for years to come. Start your knitting adventure today and bring a little piece of this traditional art form into your child’s wardrobe!
