Steam-train sweater & hat

Sizes Available: This knitting pattern accommodates a range of sizes from 26 to 32 inches in chest measurement, specifically 26, 28, 30, and 32 inch chest dimensions.

Materials Required: For creating a delightful long-sleeved sweater, you will need between 600 to 900 yards of yarn, specifically the Stylecraft Life double knitting in your chosen main color. Make sure to have enough oddments for beautiful motifs. If you're opting for a tank top, you can use one ball less than what is required for the sweater.

Recommended Needles: The pattern suggests using metric 3.25mm and 4mm needles to achieve the perfect tension and finish for your project.

Tension Information: When working with 4mm needles, ensure your tension is accurate: aim for 22 stitches and 30 rows to create a 4-inch square in stocking stitch. This is crucial for ensuring your finished garment fits perfectly.

Abbreviations: All instructions are written out in full to ensure clarity and ease of understanding for knitters of all skill levels.

Motif Details: The motifs within this pattern measure 8 inches wide by 10¼ inches high (equivalent to 44 stitches by 77 rows), adding a lovely decorative touch to your project.

Additionally, this pattern includes instructions for a cozy train bobble hat, making it a versatile choice for knitters looking to create matching accessories.
