A two-tone vintage look jumper inspired by the muted Victorian palette of Rowan’s Kid Classic. This jumper is soft and warm, ideal for autumn evenings. Knit bottom-up as front, back and sleeves, then seamed, it has a scalloped hem and cuffs, Richelieu rib detailing, short sleeves and a high, ribbed, rounded neckline. Worn with 1”/ 2.5cm negative ease for a flattering, curve hugging fit.

Instructions are written and charted for XS with size alterations in brackets. This pattern is suitable for knitters starting a first foray into lace knitting and for those novices who want to pick up a few new skills.
