Simple Sweater Kit by Tin Can Knits
We now offer handy kits of this pattern to celebrate our Mill Open Weekend special edition shades. All kits include enough yarn to make this sweater, a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Happy knitting! We do not stock the pattern ourselves, but you can buy it from the Tin Can Knits website, here.
As part of our annual Mill Open Weekend shenanigans, we always create a limited-edition mini collection of yarn and tops to help celebrate in style. This year we’ve been even more excited than usual, as we’ve been collaborating with some rather fabulous designers! Emily Wessel (Tin Can Knits), Aleks Byrd, and Ysolda Teague-Long have each created custom shades of our beloved Yarnadelic.
We have knitted up some samples using these special shades of Yarnadelic and a few of our favourite designs by Emily, Aleks and Ysolda. The Simple Sweater by Tin Can Knits is the perfect blank canvas to show off some gloriously heathered yarn. Sometimes we just need a relaxing, straightforward project, some meditative knitting that helps us relax, leaving us with a beautifully versatile garment that can be worn time after time.
