School House Jumper
This delightful jumper, designed specifically for my grandson on his first day of school, is knitted in high-quality pure wool to ensure he stays warm and comfortable throughout the day. With its user-friendly pullover style, it's easy for little ones to put on and take off by themselves. A charming cable braid on the front serves as a practical feature, helping him easily distinguish the front from the back of the garment. The jumper is created in individual parts and joined together with seams, adding stability to the final piece. The intricate braid pattern consists of a simple repeat of six rows, three of which are purl stitches, set against a reversed stocking stitch panel. This design is quick to memorize, making it an excellent choice for knitters who are new to working with cables. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting your knitting journey, this project will provide both enjoyment and a sense of accomplishment. For this project, I chose Debbie Bliss Rialto DK for its warmth and softness, but you can easily substitute any good quality yarn with the same gauge to suit your preferences. This jumper not only serves as a practical addition to your child's wardrobe but also as a heartfelt keepsake.
