Wool and the Gang | Dreamin’ Jumper Kit

If you’re a beginning knitter who longs to make a sweater or an advanced knitter who wants to knit up something stylish and simple, the Wool and the Gang Dreamin’ Jumper kit is exactly what you’re looking for.

This sweater is effortlessly cool, toasty warm, and totally easy to knit. The chunky weight yarn makes each stitch stand out. When you wear this you’ll have friends stopping you to ask, “Where did you get that jumper?”

Make the Dreamin’ Jumper with Crazy Sexy Wool, which is a chunky yarn made from 100% wool from South American sheep. This yarn is cozy, breathable and knits like a dream. Because of the chunky weight, you’ll see progress as soon as you start knitting.

Who Do We Recommend the Dreamin’ Jumper Knitting Kit For?

We’re not kidding when we say the Dreamin’ Jumper is perfect for a beginner, for this reason. Wool and the Gang designs its patterns specifically to teach you knitting skills. This pattern will teach you how to: hold your needles, make a slip knot, cast on with the cable cast on, make a knit stitch, turn your work, work in garter stitch, to cast off, seam using the horizontal invisible, perpendicular invisible, and vertical invisible seam techniques, and how to weave in your ends. Whew! That’s a lot of learning in one package. And if you already have all those skills, you can definitely make this in a weekend or a couple of evenings.
