Children's Tractor Motif Sweater Knitting Pattern Baby Boys Jumper DK Age 6mths - 8yrs

Create a cheerful tractor sweater for a little farming fan with this colourful children’s knitting pattern.

The sweater features a large red tractor worked across the front using an easy-to-follow colour chart. Its characterful smiling face, chunky wheels and little smoke clouds make it a fun design children will love to wear.

The lower section is knitted in grass green, changing to sky blue for the upper body and sleeves. Ribbed cuffs, hem and round neckline give the sweater a comfortable, traditional finish.

The sweater is worked flat on straight needles in separate front, back and sleeve pieces, then seamed. Two shoulder buttons make the neckline easier to slip over little heads.
