KID'S DONKEY JUMPER
Note This sweater has a close fitting neck. Take great care not to cast off too tightly especially as it is for children. We recommend using Elizabeth Zimmerman's sewn cast off which you'll find above. The donkey's head on the front of the garment is knitted with the intarsia method, using separate balls of yarn for each area of colour, and twisting yarns together on the wrong side of the work to avoid holes where they meet.
