Child’s Penguin Yoke Sweater Knitting Pattern PDF Chunky Christmas Jumper Age 3 - 12

Knit a wonderfully cosy penguin sweater for winter and Christmas with this downloadable knitting pattern.

The sweater features a charming ring of penguins worked around the circular yoke, complete with cream bellies, black bodies, orange beaks and feet, and embroidered eyes. Traditional colourwork bands frame the penguin design, while the plain stocking-stitch body and sleeves keep the detailed yoke as the focal point.

Knitted in chunky, bulky or 12-ply yarn, the sweater has long sleeves, deep ribbed cuffs and hem, and a warm double-folded rib neckband. The front, back and sleeves are worked separately before being joined to complete the shaped yoke in the round.
