Mini Jarrah sweater pattern
A loose-fit, drop-shoulder sweater for kids, carefully drafted to mirror the grown-up Jarrah with a few kid-friendly updates. Two necklines, cuffed sleeves and four mix-and-match hem styles make it a quick, satisfying beginner make that uses very little fabric - and grows with your little one.

The pattern came together super quickly. My girl was super happy to be able to customise her sweater. We added gold lace on the bottom and contrasting ribbing on the sleeves and collar. Other versions are already planned !
Un patron simple mais stylé et très facile à customiser. J'ai fait la taille 6 dans 50 cm de jersey molleton et on a déjà deux autres versions prévues.
I’ve sewed more than one Jarrah, both in adult and children's sizes. It’s very versatile, lots of different combinations and can be a quick sew. This version is made from a knit poly fleece, warm and snuggly but cute too. Of course, I’m biased, my grand daughter makes anything look cute in my eyes. I sewed view C with the tie hem paired with version D’s funnel neck. Instructions are easy to follow as always and the top is comfortable to wear.
A quick sew and I've made 5 with only a metre or so of fabric (each) varying the length of collar and cuffs.
Great pattern! Simple, easy to sew, and nice to have some style options, all on the same pattern. And it is a mini version of the same adult style!
Mini Jarrah sweater pattern
I bought the mini Jarrah pattern after my daughter requested a matching top to mine. Her sweater came together as easily as mine did and she is delighted to match mummy! Long may this phase continue :)
Love this pattern - made size 12 and size 3. Great instuctions, easy to follow and fit the kids well. Will be making more.
I love this pattern! I made two sweaters for my six year-old granddaughter and she loves them. Thanks for a great pattern with easy to follow instructions.
Loved this pattern - I made a Christmas jumper for my daughter just in time for a special day at school and she loved it! Great versatile pattern.
The possibilities are endless! The pattern is really cute and well made
Loved the jarrah sweater for myself so much that I HAD to get the Mini Jarrah. So adorable to have a matching wardrobe! Easy to follow instructions and the combinations are endless. One of my favourite makes for presents and myself.
