Knit Kit - Teddy Sweater
SKU: B71601
After knitting my umpteenth cowl using Lion Brand Go for Faux yarn, I thought, “wouldn’t it be nice to have an oversized sweater made out of this cozy yarn?” I thought it would be like wearing a teddy bear! And so one night after putting my son to bed, I grabbed a few skeins and just started knitting. After 3 days, I was done with the prototype and now we can all be cozy and warm in the softest sweater you’ll ever knit.
*Please note that the pattern includes children's sizes that are not offered as a kit on lionbrand.com.

Pattern Designer Information
My name is Vanessa Coscarelli Black and I’m a wife, mom, animal lover and knitwear designer residing in New Jersey. I come from a long line of various makers — tailors, shoemakers, chefs, painters, contractors. Most everyone in my family has some sort of skill that requires their hands (and I think that’s pretty great)! I started my career in finance and while I learned a ton during my time in the corporate environment, I knew that long term, it was not the right career path for me. With 20+ years of knitting/crochet experience under my belt, I slowly transitioned my hobby into my small business and never looked back.
