This project is worked in Petite Wool. Our Petite wool is a single wick fibre, characterized by its outstanding quality. Known for being soft, easy to knit and much thinner than our XL wool yarn balls, our Petite Wool will make your knitting experience an incredibly pleasant one. We adore the feeling of accomplishment as a piece grows from a little cast-on to a full-grown sweater. Enjoy the process!}
Brendan Girak, the Perth based knitwear designer behind @knitwitsandyarns began knitting at the age of 22 and hasn't stopped since! He takes inspiration from Australian nature, and strives to create ungendered, simplistic and stylish takes on modern oversized knitwear.

Airing instead of washing goes a long way. Materials like wool are even naturally self-cleaning. Hand-washing is always the gentler option and the one we recommend. Dry the garment flat and let them always dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry. Do not wring.

I bought the Banksia sweater kit to knit for my son but haven't started knitting it yet until I finish the Classic sweater for my niece. My son loved the pattern on the Banksia and is looking forward to its creation.

Sizing is weird, & missing some of the pattern

Pros:
this was so fun to make!
Easy to follow & plenty of YouTube if I didn't understand a stitch
Beautiful sweater

Cons:
The English version of the pattern is missing sleeve instructions 😅 (figured it out based on the pictures but still...)
As any sizing on the site, it was a bit weird - made a large and it fits like a medium... So just keep that in mind :)

A great travel project, a great mohair sweater

I made the Lovely Sweater while on a trip to Oregon to visit with family. Touch Me Mohair is so light and I was able to easily take all the skeins with me on the plane. Because it is such a simple pattern, it was very easy to make and not have to pay a lot of attention to an intricate stitch pattern.
I get a lot of compliments when I wear it, and several, “can you make me one?” comments.

Beautiful sweater

I am usually a size 6 and I knit the size medium :) The fit came out just right. I did have to make the sleeves longer (I knit 51 rows for each sleeve so I divided the increases by the number of rows to figure out the increase). Would definitely recommend it :)
