It is made in Stylecraft Bambino which is lovely for baby knits but with these colours perfect for anyone.
The oversize jumper has three colours in a medium stripe and a double opening feature at the neckline.
The main picture on the pattern is for a baby/toddler but there is a second version modelled by a very cool looking young man and I thought it was perfect for Joel. The dusky blue goes perfectly with jeans and the gold is so on trend for this year and very grown up for a young person.
Bambino is 100% acrylic, washes brilliantly and has a slight sheen which gives great stitch definition. The yarn is prone to splitting because of the multistrand twist but I used a very smooth round point needle and it worked very well with a good even finish.
I am very happy with it - I hope Joel will enjoy wearing it this summer.
