This is wonderful pattern for the tractor mad boy, girl or adult! The pattern gives instructions for two options of the same jumper; the child's option which offers 4 sizes, to fit between a 22-27 ½ inch chest, and an adult option offering 4 sizes to fit between a 34-48 inch chest. The child's jumper is knitted in a worsted yarn (Aran) and the adult chunky. Please note that you have to work a lot of the pattern from the two un-numbered charts as the written instructions do not cover the chart sections.
This is a Canadian pattern, and Canadian (and Australian) pattern instructions are the same as those in the UK.
There is no 'Abbreviations' section with the patterns.
Please select from the drop down list at the top of the page to choose wether you want instructions for the child's or adults jumper, or if you want both patterns you can save money by buying both! (if you choose both, the patterns will be sent with just one cover page and all instructions).
The information below is taken directly from the original pattern.
