I am currently working on some knitted Christmas jumpers for children.

The first jumper that I am working has a poinsettia embellishment on the shoulder.

I have finished knitting the jumper and the poinsettia.

The centre of the poinsettia will be done with Icord we will add the tutorial to our Icord Treasure series.

The poinsettia petals can be hand-knitted, crocheted or machine-knitted.

The jumper has been machine-knitted in plain stockinet stitch pattern using the Brother KH950i knitting machine. The electronic part of the machine has not been used.

The snowflakes and streaks will be done with a tapestry needle and a white colour yarn.

For this project, I used 100% acrylic double -knit yarn by Robin Brand.
