Hello machine knitters.

When I wanted to make a jumper with dinosaurs on it for a young friend, I went on the internet to see if there were any available patterns, but there was nothing available to buy. So I decided to make my own and got a bit carried away. This book is the result. 
There are charts for 10 popular dinosaurs, including single silhouette motifs, Fairisle borders and allover Fairisle patterns, and ‘ghost motifs’. All charts will print out full size ready to copy straight onto your 24st punchcard or electronic sheet.
I have included charts for raglan and dropped shoulder sweaters/cardigans for ages 2 - 9, for use with your Knitleader as well as instructions and calculations to enable you to use these charts if you don't have a charting device. I have also included detailed instructions for a variety of neckband techniques, in case you are a beginner. 
If you are an experienced knitter you will be able to use the patterns as you wish.
At the end you will find ready to use cards with dinosaur info and washing instructions for 100% acrylic, that you can give with your garment. 

60 pages of charts, tips, info and ideas.
I hope you enjoy using the designs and that your young friend will be delighted with the result.
