Wild thing jumper
The Wild thing jumper is worked flat from the bottom up in pieces that are seamed before picking up stitches and working the neckband in the round. The Wild thing motif is worked from a chart. Use a combination of intarsia, stranded colourwork and duplicate stitch to avoid having to weave in too many ends.
