Zigzag Jumper Pattern

Perfect during a bit of alpine apres-ski or strolling down a wintryKing’s Road (and will be putting the latter to the test in the near future)!

The jumper is worked from the top down and is very quick and simple. The only trickiness is ensuring that you keep the floats nice and neat, especially as the zigzags get bigger. I would, for this reason, recommend knitting the sleeves flat, as it is particularlytricky going down the arms. I’ve mentioned this below.Also, be very careful when securing the carried yarn, try to ensure you never twist yarns in the same place on consecutive rounds or you will get show-through. For these reasons only I would recommend that you have a little experience of colourwork before trying this pattern.
