The neckline stitches are picked up and worked in the round.
This pattern is written for eight baby and children's sizes -

NOTES
- If you are not familiar with Intarsia Knitting, there is a link to a great in-depth beginners tutorial included in the pattern.
- This jumper has a relaxed fit and balloon sleeves which makes it easy to dress your little one and provides room for layering.
- There is 20cm of positive ease in the body and 10cm in the sleeves. Take the child’s chest measurement and add 20cm to determine your size.
- As there is a lot of variance between different brands of Bulky/Chunky weight yarn, it is important to do a tension square/swatch and check your gauge. Adjust your needle size in order to reach the gauge as stated.
