About this pattern…
Armagh is in Northern Ireland and the first time I visited here was to attend an event which changed my life. Armagh will always remain special to me, and at the risk of sounding like a cliché; it was the beginning of the rest of my life! A broken wee lassie with no self-confidence, no self-worth and zero conviction walked into the City Hotel that day and I left absolutely buzzing looking forward to life and living. This one is for you and the team Stevey xx

My Irish roots have inspired my love of the Aran style of knitting and I have introduced a modern twist to my creations. Some experience is required to knit this beautiful pattern and it is suitable for a boy or girl.
Size Guide: The pattern for a Hat and Jacket has instructions to fit 16″, 18″, 20″ and 22″ chest and the end product is larger as it is a jacket. By extending the length of the arms and body on the largest size, it would easily fit a 3 year old.
Wool & yarn recommendation…
I often get asked which wool I use and who my yarn supplier is! For this knit I have used Stylecraft Special Aran which I selected for its softness, it is very gentle on a baby’s skin. There are over 88 different shades available through LoveCrafts, who are my preferred yarn and wool supplier. (Spend over £25 to get free P&P and sign up their newsletter for 15% off your first order!)… I would also recommend Paintbox Aran for this pattern.

I was worried I wouldn’t be able to knit this pattern, but the instructions are so well written. Once you get going it just flows. The cables stand out beautifully. I’m so glad I started this will be one of my favourites so far
