    Warbler Sweater | yarn + pattern PREORDER

    This is your perfect cozy sweater for all kinds of tomfoolery!

    Hard-wearing enough to garden in; soft and cozy enough for reading and lounging.

    Your kit includes:

    • PDF pattern for all 10 sizes and with companion video tutorials (delivered via Ravelry)
    • Hand-dyed yarn:  4 to 8 skeins of my hand-dyed Targhee Worsted wool, depending on what size you want to knit
    • You Are Loved label to sew inside your sweater
    • My Blossom hat pattern, in case you have yarn left over, so you have a perfect add-on project, ready-to-go

    This kit is not just yarn: It's a beautifully written and test-knit pattern, all the yarn you need, a label to sew inside to remind yourself that you are loved, and a sweet Targhee Wool Week discount to make it more affordable. (Discount available only from April 12 to April 18.)

    I don't just want you to stash this kit; I want you make yourself a Warbler sweater. You're going to love wearing it as much as I do.

    This is a pre-order, which means it will ship in 4-6 weeks and sooner if I can.

    Fit notes: Anne is wearing the 5-skein size (size 3) and her sweater measures 49”), and she has a full bust size of 40” and an upper bust of 38”.
