Temptation Sweater is comfortable over-sized garment which will keep your little fashionista warm and cozy even the coldest winter days. The sweater has classic boxy silhouette and pretty cables combination.
It is knitted back and forth with minimal shaping. The sweater is designed with positive ease about 25 – 30 cm/ 10 - 12 inches, dropped shoulder and long neck. All parts of the sweater: back, front and sleeves are knitted separately. After the shoulder seams are completed, the stitches are picked up for collar which is knitted in the round.
Pattern is written for sizes from 2-4 years up to 13-14 years. Bigger sizes are in the adult pattern - Big Temptation Sweater.
Knitting pattern for Temptation sweater is available from LoveCrafts and Ravelry
This sweater was designed based on my Temptation Poncho and Hat set which I knitted for my daughter a few years ago. I still love the poncho a lot, but I wanted to make more universal garment which can be worn under the coat as well as without. Knitting pattern for Temptation Poncho is available from Etsy, Ravelry and LoveCrafts as well as in Mary Maxim knitting kits

The sweater can be knitted with Aran or worsted weight yarn. So it is quite fast and enjoyable knit. I used Fleece Bluefaced Leicester by Wets Yorkshire Spinners in Ecru. The following yarn substitutes can be used:
- Mary Maxim Woodlands
- Hudson Worsted by the Yarn Collective
- Drops Nepal by Garnstudio
- Rowan Pure Wool Superwash Worsted
- Patons North America Decor
