A Swift Knit
This new Stylecraft yarn is
extremely chunky and intensely
warm. What more could you ask
for in a winter yarn? Easy to wear
and care for, this yarn’s mottled
effect will add some well-needed
splashes of colour throughout
the dull winter months. The
shades are inspired by nature
and each strand has such
chunky squish appeal that you
will be swiftly knitting up new
garments in no time.
