Knitting Pattern: Rocket Size Three Years
Knitting Pattern: Rocket Size Three Years
This is a PDF instant file.
This is a pattern for a handknit sweater for a three year old child.
On the front the rocket is soaring into space past the Sun, Earth, Mercury, Venus, and the Moon. On the back are the outer planets, in incorrect order!, in a starry sky. The sleeves are mirrored comets shooting through the starry sky. The wrists and hem trim is rocket flames. The neck, wrists, and hem trim is alternating stripes of red and variegated blue. There is an option for adding a chain stitch detailing around the planets and the rocket.
Pattern has written directions 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. Have fun!

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!
