Granny Square Baby Sweater | Crochet Pattern PDF
Granny Square Baby Sweater | Crochet Pattern PDF
This is my crochet pattern for the childs top down, no sew jumper crew neck granny stripe bell sleeve jumper. This is for the digital download. Top down - worked from the neck down to the waist hem, then armpit to cuff so if you wish to make is longer or shorter you can, it can be extended as a tunic jumper or reduced to a cropped jumper it is a very versatile pattern and relatively quick to make (I made mine over three evenings)
Pattern Details
- I have recently rewritten this pattern after reading through feedback. The download now includes a condesnsed version of the jumper, has been written for a more normal double knit yarn and has both US and UK terminology available. I have left the original pattern there for those that like the longer more descriptive patterns.
- The jumper requires around 6 colours of dk weight yarn, I used Stylecraft double knit. You will need less than 50g of each colour and a size 4.5 mm hook for the smaller jumpers. The jumper can be made in any colour combination or as just one colour.
- The pattern has instructions for ages 0-3 months through to 12 years. I do have the adult version of this jumper pattern listed separately.
No sew - the jumper is worked as one piece, you do not end up with lots of pieces to sew together.
This is a very simple, straight forward pattern suitable for intermediate or the more practised beginner, give it a try! I am happy to help.

I’ve just knitted a big brother and a little brother jumper in some lovely bright colours. They look great and it was easy to do.
Really clear and easy to follow pattern. Made a beautiful, bright jumper for my son and working on a matching one for my husband
This has turned out so well. So easy to follow and a good tip for the cuffs that I made a mistake on before this pattern so very happy. Measurements were good too.
Love it, allows you to make the sweater on your own terms the way you want it!
Lovely pattern easy to follow using drifter yarn
Great pattern, well written and clear instructions. I really like there’s a range of sizes and it’s very easy to personalise. I made two different jumpers for my niece and will be making more in future!
Bought this and the adult version, can’t wait to match with my mini me
Very easy to follow with a basic understanding of granny clusters. An absolute beginner may need a YT tutorial on the basic ribbing involved but otherwise it was a quick and easy project!

Cute pattern. It says sizes 12 months to 2X or something like that but I am actually using this pattern to also make a 6-12 month size. I haven’t gotten the as made yet but so far it’s been a great and easy to do pattern!
