CANDYFLOSS 80'S SWEATER CHILD KNITTING PATTERN AND YARN

Knitting kit with yarn and free digital knitting pattern. We love the 80s! Fun and easy knit sweater that kids love. Knits bottom-up in one strand of Fluff Mohair or 4 strands of Hip Mohair. When you get to the sleeves, the front and back pieces are divided in two and knitted separately. Here we have made the back piece with stripes and the front piece with a pattern. Sleeves are knitted from the shoulder down, by picking up stitches in the opening of the body.

Roomy in size with wide sleeves and a normal/slightly short body. Thick neckline.

To create a version like this, you need 7 different colors. Feel free to play around and put together your own version!

Model shown wearing sweaters in Fluff «In Love pink,» Fluff «FairyTale pink,» Fluff «Must Have Mint,» Fluff Mohair «Tropical island,» Fluff «Blooming Lilac,» and Fluff «Lemonade.» On one of the striped colors on the back of the sweater, we've also used Fluff «Peach Cream.» You can use one of the other colors here if desired, or use other leftover yarn.

The pictured version is also in white and blue, assembled somewhat from imagination. Different colored ribbing on the neck and sleeves than the pattern. Colors used are Hip Mohair «Cotton Ball white» (main color, you need double the amount of Hip Mohair than stated in Fluff), Fluff «Baby blues,» «Bubbly blue,» «Sky high blue,» «Lilac breeze,» and «In love pink» (sleeve and neck ribbing).

Sweater yellow at the bottom: Fluff in «Little Miss Sunshine», «Fairytale Pink», «In Love Pink», «Must Have Mint», Hip Mohair in «Tropical Island». Striped rug in «Lilac Breeze» and «In Love Pink» Fluff. Circles on the front and one sleeve in «Blooming Lilac» Fluff.
