Easy Baby Jumper Pattern.Ihave seen a very easy pattern for a knitted jumper,but can't seem to find a copy, can anyone help?The jumper is knitted in 2 pieces, back and front, knitted in garter stitch, the sleeves are cast on whist knitting the body. Looks like a knitted T shape.It has blanket stitch around the neck, wrists and lower edge. Very basic,looks easy?debbie bliss |

I don't have a pattern like that myself but I'll have a look around Cookie. Have you tried an online search on the sites that do free patterns? |

Did you manage to find this Cookie, I've looked all over and haven't been able to. |

The Oxfam jumper pattern would be very easy for children to knit and make up. It is just a T-shape so it is all straight knitting except for 2 rows of increasing for the sleeves. THE OXFAM JUMPER PATTERN Please print this page out - and pass a copy on to a friend! To fit 20" (22", 24" ) chest. Length 11½ (12½", 14") You will need: 150 (150, 150) grammes double knitting wool. A pair of each of No. 8 and No. 10 needles. FRONT AND BACK (make two) With No.10 needles cast on 57 (63, 69) stitches and knit 7 (9, 9) rows. Change to No.8 needles and continue: 1st row knit 2nd row purl 3rd row knit 4th row purl 5th row knit 6th row purl 7th row knit 8th row knit Continue pattern until work measures 6¾" (7½", 8¾") ending on purl row. Cast on 18 (22, 26) stitches at beginning of next two rows for sleeves 93 (107, 121) stitches. Next and every row - knit 3, pattern to last 3 stitches, knit 3. Continue until work measures 11" (12½", 14"). Next row - knit 3, pattern 20 (24, 28 ), knit 47 (53, 59) pattern 20 (24, 28 ) knit 3. Repeat last row four times more. Cast off. TO MAKE UP: Do not press. Join sides and underarm seams, then join the cast off edges, leaving sufficient free at the centre for the head to go through. * 2 months ago Source(s): This version was found at the Caerwent Community web site. The Tumaini Appeal are also asking for these jumpers |
