Derry

£3.95£4.95

DERRY is a bold new style I wanted to try out and I love the effect.  The back “V” is transferred on to both fronts resulting in a real statement piece.  I used the simple honeycomb cable along with moss stitch and the technique to achieve the shape is very simple once you get going.  Finished off with a collar, this Jacket and Hat set will suit both boys and girls and comes in chest size 18″ – 24″.  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.

Description

DERRY is a striking set of Jacket and matching Hat.

My Irish roots have inspired my love of the Aran style of knitting and I have introduced a modern twist to my creations.

Size Guide:  The pattern for a Jacket and Cardigan has instructions to fit 18″ to 24″ chest.  Always measure the child prior to starting your project as all children are different.

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.
