Jessica McDonald is an American knit designer, mother of three children and nature lover who imagines with great attention to detail designs with classic charm that make you want to live outside. She has created this fall “Woodland ramble” a beautiful collection of four sweaters and three accessories for children in Ulysse and Gilliatt inspired by the forest and the joy of covering these children with cozy wool!
The patterns include a variety of colorwork and texture knitting for relaxing and engaging knits. All of the patterns are gender neutral and timeless. The sweater patterns are sized from 2 years to 12 years, and the accessory patterns are sized from 2 years to adult.
