Skibbereen

SKIBBEREEN is a gorgeous double breasted Cardigan with matching Hat.  There is also instructions for 2 different patterns on the sleeves as well as an optional strap for the Hat. SKIBBEREEN comes in chest size 18″ – 26″, the largest size completing at size 29.5″.  It is a smart, well constructed pattern knitted in one piece to armhole shaping.

Bootees and mittens are available as a free download on website.

Knitted on straight needles.

I am reluctant to state ages for sizes and those suggested on pattern are for guidance only – as children get older, best to go by chest size then measure neck to where you wish it to end and adjust accordingly.  If the child is slim with long body, knit to appropriate chest size and extend length before shaping for armholes.
