Knitting Pattern: Princesses Nine Years
Knitting Pattern: Princesses Nine Years
This is a PDF instant file.
This is a pattern for a hand knit sweater for a nine year old child.
This sweater was suggested by someone on Etsy! On the front is a pink princess and a unicorn with a purple mane. On the back the princess wears purple and she accompanies a turquoise-maned and -winged Pegasus. The sleeves show the unicorn and Pegasus alone. The princesses stand in a clearing, surrounded by flowering light green plants and mountains and rivers behind. At the shoulders the blue of the sky turns into jagged patterns of dark blue and purple. The wrists and hem trim is variegated red swirls on light green. The neck and wrists trim have alternating variegated red and dark red stripes with a picot edge. The peplum has the jagged pattern in stripes of pink and red, ending in a picot trim.
Pattern has written directions, materials lists, and full color charts to enlarge. The pattern assumes a good knowledge of knitting, or at least an adventurous spirit and a knitting guidelines book. Obviously other color combinations are possible.
Have fun!

Thank you for your purchase!
My patterns are meant to be knit fearlessly, changing details as desired. You can omit background details to simplify the picture, or you can change colors freely to suit your intended recipient.
I do have a strange gauge for the size needles I use, so IT IS CRUCIAL that you match the gauge to your own knitting style. Have fun!
