This classic jumper for girls aged seven to 12 years is worked in a beautiful shade of blue, complemented by a pretty stranded colourwork yoke. The body is worked in one piece up to the armholes, then the sleeves are knitted and joined with the body to work the colourwork yoke. The jumper is knitted in Navia’s Uno yarn, which is a lightweight blend of Faroese and Shetland wool with Australian lambswool. It comes in a range of natural fleece shades, pastels and brighter colours.
