Winter Garden Jumper

Introducing the Winter Garden woolen jumper, a delightful knitting pattern designed for little girls aged 1 to 7. With its charming stranded colorwork motif, this jumper adds a touch of brightness to any winter landscape. Crafted at a fine gauge using a premium woolen-spun 2-ply wool, the Winter Garden jumper is both lightweight and warm, making it the perfect choice for festive occasions or everyday adventures—whether it's a holiday celebration or playful puddle stomping.

This pattern offers a rewarding challenge for adventurous intermediate knitters, while also allowing expert knitters to refine their skills with techniques like the Channel Islands cast-on and Anna Zilboorg’s “perfect buttonholes.” These unique techniques not only contribute to the jumper's heirloom quality but also enhance its durability, ensuring that it can withstand the rigors of childhood play. For those looking to simplify the process, we provide alternative techniques that can easily be substituted based on your skill level and comfort.

The Winter Garden jumper is designed with a comfortable fit in mind, providing enough room to layer over a shirt and leggings as your little one grows. The sizing accommodates girls from 1 to 7 years, and it includes guidance for modeling the jumper in 12-18 month and 4/5 size—complete with 0.5” and 2.5” of ease, respectively. Plus, you have the flexibility to adjust the skirt length, whether you prefer a longer dress for special occasions or a shorter tunic style for casual outings.
