Knitting Knit - Simple sweater for 60cm

Ok i've never written a pattern down in my life so please bear with me but I made this sweater for my Dollstown Daisy 13yr body and thought i'd share it with you all.


Knitting pattern
Size 4mm needles and double knit yarn.
Back and Front the same. So make 2.
Cast on 26 stitches
Work in Knit 1Purl 1 rib for 4 rows (If preferred work in moss stitch for 4 rows or omit altogether)
Starting with a knit row, work in stocking stitch for 4 inches (or to desired length, if you would like the jumper longer) ending with the right side facing ready for the next row.
K1, K2 together knit to last 3 stitches, slip 1 K1 pass slipped stitch over K1
Next row: Purl
Repeat last 2 rows 4 times more.
Place remaining 16 stitches on stitch holder. (I used a safety pin)

Sleeves. Make 2.

Cast on 20 stitches and work 4 rows of either 1x1 rib or moss stitch, whichever you prefer.
Work straight for 6 inches or until work reaches desired length( i.e. Just under dolls armpits)
ending with the right side facing ready for the next row.
K1, K2 together knit to last 3 stitches, slip 1 K1 pass slipped stitch over K1
Next row: Purl
Repeat last 2 rows 4 times more.
Place remaining 10 stitches on a stitch holder.

Slide all finished pieces back onto needle with right sides facing in the following order: Back, sleeve, front, sleeve.

Knit across all pieces in 1x1 rib for 4 rows and at the end of every row knit 2 stitches together.
Cast off in rib.

It should be obvious how all the pieces fit together at this point so go ahead and sew the seams up and hopefully you'll have a nice simple jumper for your doll.

I'm really sorry but I forgot to check my tension but i measured it just now on the jumper and it was 20 stitches and 30 rows in a 4 inch square.

I hope all my calculations are right as i'm not an expert knitter. This is a very simple pattern to follow and I hope it helps someone.
