What could be cuter for baby to wear on a chilly day than an adorable snowman jumper?
The Little Snowman, with his dapper top hat, cosy mittens and snuggly scarf looks so friendly as he gives a welcoming wave to everyone he meets.
This sweet sweater is worked in intarsia from a chart, the Snowman character has a tactile carrot nose and 'real' scarf wrapped cosily around him - irresistibly festive!
Don’t let the intarsia chart intimidate you, this is a single colour chart with basic shapes, this would make a perfect first intarsia project.
Those snuggly features such as his hat, nose, mittens and scarf and knitted and then sewn on to bring this festive fellow to life.
The jumper is a simple construction, worked flat from the bottom up with garter stitch borders. Seamed construction and simple button fastening for ease of dressing.
Knit in acrylic DK yarn, your little jumper will wash and wear well into the New Year, after all a Snowman is not just for Christmas.
