Description

My youngest step-daughter just fell in love with this cute little hooded sweater as soon as she saw it - so I know there are other little ones out there that will want to have this special hand-knit item. I especially love the little cross-stitch design on the pocket. Such a cute little detail!

This listing is for the knitting pattern only. It is a .pdf file that will be available for immediate download after checkout.

This pattern is originally from Woman’s Day Knitting Book, Number 17, published in 1973. This is no longer in circulation, so in order to make it available for more vintage loving knitters, I am transcribing the instructions exactly as written in the original pattern book and offering them here.
