Puntalinos

Puntalinos are a collection of mini items: a jumper, a hat and a sock. I started knitting these mini sweaters to help me choose a colour combination for my Puntal sweater (a full-size sweater). I enjoyed it so much that I had to add a mini hat and a mini sock to form a garland. Use scraps of any weight or colour to make your own mini knitted collection or garland.

MATERIALS

• 3.25 mm (US3), either 80 cm (36”) long (for magic loop), or DPNs. It doesn’t really matter if you use bigger or smaller needles.
  
• 4 markers
  
• Tapestry needle and waste yarn

YARN

DK weight yarn. I used scraps of Rosa Pomar Brusca. For each item you will need 3 colours. In the pattern I always called them C1 (colour 1), C2 and C3 but you can use any colour for any of them and combine them in a different order for each item. You can also use different weight yarn with the appropriate size needles for that weight. The final item will just be bigger or smaller depending on the weight you use. In case you want an idea of amount and dimensions, these are mine for each item:

• Sweater: 7 g (16 cm from one sleeve to the other and 7 cm long)
  
• Hat: 1 g (4.5 cm wide)
  
• Sock: 3 g (9 cm long)

SIZE

One size only. The size will vary depending on the yarn and needles used. See above.

GAUGE

Gauge is not important for this pattern.

Full-size versions

If you want the knit similar full-size versions, you can use the following patterns:

• Puntal sweater
• 80s Retro socks
• Tazones hat
