Beetle Magic Jumper Knitting Pattern

£6.90

Beetle Magic by Katie Green was inspired by our magically-marled Chimera yarn!

Beetle Magic is knitted seamlessly from the top down with short row shaping at the back to ensure a comfortable fit. The body is knitted straight from underarm to hem, without waist shaping. The length of the body and sleeves can be adjusted to your preference by trying on the garment as you work. Please note that if you wish to add length, more yarn will be required.
