Fair Isle Donkey

Explore the joy of knitting with our delightful jumper pattern, featuring all parts knitted flat for ease of assembly. No circular knitting is needed, making this pattern perfect for knitters of all skill levels. The body of the jumper is crafted using DK (8-ply) yarn, while the intricate jumper designs are created with a softer 4-ply (fingering) weight yarn. You’ll only require small amounts of each color, so feel free to dive into your stash for a fun and creative project. This versatile knit pattern includes one body size and two charming jumper designs across 6 detailed pages, ensuring you have all the guidance you need for your knitting journey. A crochet hook is specified solely for picking up stitches, and precision is not a requirement—any hook close to 2mm will work just fine. Plus, there's no need to have prior knowledge of crochet techniques! The finished size of the jumper measures 12cm, making it a perfect addition to any wardrobe. For the body, we recommend using the luxurious Rowan Kid Classic in the colorway 866 Bitter Sweet for the main color (MC), paired beautifully with contrasting colors (CC) such as 914 Chocolate and 890 Cement. For the jumper designs, we suggest using the versatile Jamieson’s of Shetland Spindrift yarn. Choose from vibrant shades like [A] 525 Crimson and 526 Spice, or opt for more neutral tones with [B] 122 Granite and 179 Buttermilk. You can also add a splash of color with [C] 676 Sapphire and 772 Verdigris, or go for a fresh look with [D] 540 Coral. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern invites you to create a beautiful jumper to cherish or gift to someone special.
