Here Comes Trouble Wooden Buttons

Lovely wooden buttons which I had specially made to finish off Chunky and Aran Knits.

They come in packs of ten (10) with the words "Here Comes Trouble" and are 20mm diameter.

Exclusive to this page. For bulk orders, please email me.

 

FARMER JOE has been a hugely anticipated Aran design as it comes in larger sizes!  It is a gorgeous cable and looks so classic in the cream and really pops in other colours.

FARMER JOE come in chest size 22″ – 30″, but please measure the child as they come in all shapes and sizes so may need extra length or a different chest size.  The ages suggested are an approximation and loose guide.

Designed for Val on our team to raise funds for a local boy, she and others plan to knit this specially created piece to raise funds.

Knitted on straight needles.

Description

FARMER JOE is a smart Aran Jumper in larger sizes than normal.

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 Jumper has instructions to fit 22″ to 30″ 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.
