DROVER-LASCH4-4

Drover Yarn Kit

Size: Size 1 and 2
Combination: Hearthside (LF) and Bejewelled (D)

Drover by Natalie Bullock

Early release of yarn kit for Pom Pom subscribers

Designer Natalie Bullock tells us that Drover was inspired by the American West and her admiration for the people who live and work in the backcountry in this region. The focus of the design was to create something warm, rustic, and with a bit of flair; and we can safely say that she has succeeded. Knit from the top down, this sweater allows you to try it on as you go, meaning you can gauge the length of the sleeves and the body easily. Whether you’re wearing it riding, driving, walking, or sitting, Drover might not be your trusty steed, but it can be your trusty companion.

The pattern is size inclusive, with 10 sizes ranging from finished chest measurements from 91.5 cm  - 183 cm (36" - 72").

In Stock Yarns:  We will pick and ship your in-stock yarn as soon as possible, within a few business days. Please note that if your order also includes dyed-to-order yarns you will need to allow up to 1 - 2 weeks for us to dye and ship your yarn.

Working with Hand Dyed Yarn:While we strive for consistency, due to the hand dye process variations may exist between (and with some colourways within) dye lots. Therefore it is important to order sufficient yarn for your project, and if a uniform result is preferred we suggest alternating skeins. We hope that you will value and appreciate the beautiful and unique creations of the hand dye process and are always happy to assist you in working with hand dyed yarns!
