“OLIVIA” Girls Unicorn Jumper Knitting Pattern

This delightful girls' jumper is perfect for little ones who love unicorns and all things magical. The charming unicorn design adds a fun and eye-catching feature, making Olivia a lovely project for knitters who enjoy creating something a little different.
Olivia is available in four sizes from 18–24" chest, suitable for approximately 6 months to 3 years, making it a wonderful design for babies and young children.
The original Olivia jumper was knitted using King Cole Cherish DK yarn for the main garment, with King Cole Yummy Crush used to create the unicorn motif. Alternatively, King Cole Cherished DK can be used if you prefer a plain-coloured jumper.

Unlike traditional intarsia designs, the unicorn motif is knitted separately from the jumper and then carefully stitched into position before the jumper's side seams are sewn together.

Whether you're knitting for your own little one, a grandchild or creating a special handmade birthday or Christmas gift, Olivia is a delightful unicorn knitting pattern for creating a unique and memorable children's jumper.
