Maple Leaf Sweater – Knitting Pattern (PDF) The Maple Leaf Sweater is a cozy, playful sweater for children, inspired by the shapes and colours of autumn leaves. The diagonal lines tie the colours together, allowing you to play around with your scrap yarn. The sweater is worked top-down with a comfortable fit and classic ribbed edges at the neckline, cuffs, and hem. The construction is straightforward, with the leaf motif worked as cables, making it an engaging knit without being too overwhelming. It’s designed to be warm, practical and unique.
