MATILDA is a beautiful Aran Coat with a choice of either a Beret or Cap. Perfect for any time of the year. Even better it is suitable for both boys and girls.
MATILDA comes in chest size 16″ – 22″ and knits to sizes 17″ – 23.5″ on straight needles. It is worked over a 6 row repeat cable with moss stitch to showcase the beautiful effect. It is a lot easier than it looks using only one cable stitch technique!
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.

MATILDA – a beautiful Aran Coat with 2 matching Hats
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 16″ to 22″ 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.
Such a pleasure to knit this pattern. Very easy to follow. I have knit it in size 1 – 2 years with Yarnsmiths Create Baby Aran in the Baby Mint colour. I am sure this will be a sought-after design with my customers.
