Knitting Pattern: Trains Three Years
Knitting Pattern: Trains Three Years
This is a PDF instant file.
This is a pattern for a sweater for a three year old train lover.
On the front a black steam engine rolls down the tracks. On the back are the engine's coal car and red caboose. Each sleeve has three more colorful engines, in various colors, against a blue sky. The trim pattern on the sleeves and body is black silhouetted houses against a shaded blue sky. There is also a more difficult variation for a trim pattern of white houses and green trees. The neck, wrists, and hem sew-down trim is alternating stripes of black and variegated blue. This pattern uses many different colors of DK yarn.
Obviously other colors can be used.
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!
