Wool and the Gang | Eden Jumper Kit

Love the Crazy Sexy Wool but aren’t too sure what to make with it? The Wool and the Gang Eden Jumper pattern is especially designed to it! You will get a fabulous booklet with all the instructions you need to make the sweater, suitable for intermediate knitters. This jumper knits up incredibly fast, and at the end you’ll have a slouchy, boxy turtleneck that will keep those cool drafts off your nape all winter long.

The Eden Jumper is made from 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.
