Our best selling product is our Vanilla Sweater Kit!
It's so popular because it's quick to knit and eminently wearable! It looks great on every body type! Even experienced knitters love the Vanilla Sweater Kit as a nice palate cleanser between projects. Many of our Thistlers love the experience of knitting the Vanilla Sweater so much that they have knitted several in different colors!
