Wool and the Gang | Whistler Scarf Kit

Description

The Wool and the Gang Whistler Scarf Kit is large and in charge. The well-defined chunky stitches make it especially eye-catching. It makes the kind of giant, warm, chunky scarf that says to winter, “Bah! You have no power over me!” Not only is it fabulous, but it’s also easy to knit. And you’ll have a gorgeous scarf at the end of it!

Make the Whistler Scarf 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.
