Wishbone Sweater Kits

Do we have one more tee in us? Wishbone by Caitlyn Turowski is a tee to transition into fall. Wear it now in the waning warmth of the last of summer and layer it over long-sleeves when the weather gets colder.

Fiber Content

We just had to have us some tweed— some Elmer Tweed! Elmer Tweed is woolen spun with more than just a pinch of cashmere. It has a rustic essence and a beautiful richness. It’s fantastic on its own and perfect for colorwork. This tweed holds its shape beautifully while remaining lightweight. The little tweedy bits of color keep you wanting to knit “just one more round” in anticipation of what bits will appear next. This incredibly plush yarn will bring you right onto the tweed bandwagon if we do say so ourselves! (Elmer Tweed is 70% wool and 30% cashmere.)

Marked colorways are available as 100g skeins with 400 yards per skein.
Hand wash suggested. Lay flat to dry.

Elmer Fingering is a woolen spun Merino/ Cashmere blend. Like Elmer Tweed, it's rustic with a beautiful texture and richness. It’s fantastic on its own and perfect for colorwork. It’s light, lofty and holds its shape beautifully. All the hold and snap back of wool with a whisper of cashmere for softness and halo.
