Super Chunky Toastie Jumper & Cardigan Knitting Pattern - 6231

Knit a pair of bold, vibrant statement garments with this King Cole 6231 knitting pattern leaflet. Designed for super chunky weight yarns, this pattern includes complete instructions to knit two cosy, eye-catching ladies' wardrobe pieces: a colourful round-neck Sweater and a relaxed button-front Cardigan. Both garments feature playful colour-block striping accented by thick ribbed borders along the hem, cuffs, and neckline. The pieces are worked on chunky 7.00mm and 8.00mm straight knitting needles, allowing thick yarns to work up remarkably fast into warm, squishy, and stylish outerwear. We stock the printed pattern leaflet alongside a selection of quality super chunky weight yarns right here in our shop, so you can easily choose your favourite colour combinations and cast on straight away.
