D. Thomas – You’re right, we forgot to include a color key! There’s one available for download now.

Was wondering where exactly the orange, blossom heather and serrano go. I do not find a color chart and don’t know the game that well Thank you.

@Andrea: I would just find a sweater pattern that would fit your boy for the sizing/shaping, and use the chart provided in the pattern for the design. Try to find a pattern that calls for yarn of the same gauge to make it easier.

I would love to make this for my 7 year old who is crazy for Mario, any suggestions on how to scale the pattern down for a little man?

@Lacey: I used a fingering weight yarn (just a little thicker than sock-weight yarn).

What is the weight of the yarn that you used to knit this vest?

my 26 year old son wants it. He enjoyed Mario games as a boy.

@Sarah: Definitely send in a pattern! We’re going to have a photo contest for the Mario sweater in a couple of months, so stay tuned.

Thanks so much for posting this! Will send you pictures (and cookies!) of what my version turns out like… I’ve used a chart before, so this will be a good learning experience.
