Hi there! I'm about to send your knit kit this afternoon. I hope you enjoy it; it's a simple pattern, but really fun.
I can't wait to get it! I still need to get a pair of knitting needles to go with my kit, then it's out the door. Thank you!
Hi Vanessa! I'm so glad you liked the kit. My friend, Terra, wrote the pattern. It's shortlisted for the Stitch 'N Bitch edition for men's knits. I love the pattern ~ it's easy and it looks great. And I'm addicted to Paton's Classic Merino Wool. I have about 20 skeins. The Coffee Crisp bar is a Canadian classic ~ they just released a maple one in the past few years.
I can't wait to see your finished product.
