It’s in 6, 12 18 months. It depends on how big your baby is. I have knitted this pattern so many times. It is a great pattern and fits really well. I usually knit any extra two bands of the pattern.
Sizes are 0 -3 months, 6 -9 months, 12 -18 months. Not very generous sizing for today’s kids. Have a look at Ravelry Shepherd # 759, lots of projects and comments.
I have this beautiful classic pattern printed by Shepherd. I knitted the jacket back in the 1980s for my sons, two years ago for my first grandson and now for my second grandson.
Jacket Months 0-3 (6-9:12-18) To fit underarm 40cm (47cm:53cm) Actual size 48cm (56cm:63cm) Length approx 26cm (31cm:36cm) Sleeve length approx 12cm (15.5cm:19cm)
No size specified, but I’ve made several; it will fit a 9 month old, I think, and still fits at about 18 months!! I don’t know how, but it just seems to grow with the child.
love this pattern – my daughter – granddaughter and now great grand daughter have had this knitted for them and now its my turn to knit my great grand daughter to haver one knitted.
When I worked in a knit shop it was Shepherd 759 and was for 6 months in dk and seemed to grow with the child, it can also be made in 4ply for newborn.
Did you work this out Claudia? I am in the same predicament as you were and I can’t understand at all how to determine where in the pattern I am when I’m reducing stitch number for the raglan armholes. Not sure why I can’t see it at all. If anyone else is reading….. when shaping for raglan armholes on the back of the jacket the pattern describes the first two rows which include casting off stitches at the beginning of each row. Then for row 3, it says k1,p1, pattern to last 2 sts, p1,k1. How to determine where in the pattern to resume after the k1,p1? Do you just have to do complicated maths (I have drawn a grid) to work it out? Thanks
I am knitting for me great granddaughter and would love to get his patterns as I find that hoodies are excellent along with matinee sets as I do a lot of knitting for charity Your patterns look so lovely.
I’d love to knit this for my 4.5 year old grand daughter, in a nice bright colour to wear with her jeans. I just need the amount of stitches and if anyone has worked this pattern out to fit up to a 6 year old yet?
I first knitted this pattern from the Shepherd leaflet. The Baby Love pattern by Patons had extra sizes so I was knitting the smallest size. PLEASE NOTE A MISTAKE ON PAGE 4 OF PATTERN. It is under the yoke instructions. First 4 rows ,page 3 are correct. Row 5 , top of page 4 is correct. Knit 3 rows is correct. THEN the next lines of pattern, listed as rows 1-5, then to row 8, are incorrect (repeated) and should be taken out of instructions. From row 9 it’s all correct. I love this pattern, with or without the hood.
I was just looking this up to see if there are amendments as it is not working out and appears to be all garter stitch in the yoke instructions but not in the picture . Trying to work it out ! 😊
I am currently knitting this pattern and am a little confused. The instructions for the Yoke has rows 1-8 printed twice…is this correct or a printing error?
Hello , confused me too ! Skip the second set of 1-5 eg .. just do row 5 , top of page followed by 3 rows of garter then go straight to row 9 .. knit row 😊
Oh this IS a real classic! There’s a kind of magic about this pattern, it brings out the adorableness of any baby. I had two of these for mine in the ’80s. And really practical and cosy too, with that hood.
Thank you for posting. “You did a good thing there”. x
This pattern has been available in Otago, New Zealand for nearly 70 years. At the Mosgiel Woolen Mills it was known as The Mosgiel Jacket’. Generations of kids have worn, and still are wearing it. It does seem to grow with the kids. Now coming in three sizes makes it even better! 💕💕💕
