  • Hunky Dory Jumper Pattern

    .

    This cool pattern is free with your purchase of Plump Superchunky yarn for this pattern by Mrs Moon!  Just let us know in the Notes section of your order and we will email you the pattern.

    Hunky Dory is a two-colour brioche knit with a very sloppy fit and fabulous voluminous sleeves.

    It’s knitted from the top down in the round and comes in sizes S through to XXL. It’s knitted on 12mm needles so although it sounds as though it could be a heavy knit it’s actually incredibly light and squishy.

    The pattern includes videos on how to set up the brioche, the brioche increases and decreases (at the cuff). If you’ve never done two colour brioche before, it really isn’t difficult and you can certainly give it a first go with this jumper but it’s probably not for a total beginner!

    The jumper is a very loose fit.  We’d really recommend checking out the different size measurements if you want a closer fitting garment or are considering sizing up. 

    We’ve had lots of positive feedback about this sweater already. It uses two colours of Plump Superchunky.
