Crofter Dk is a bit of a dream come true.
The yarn is self-patterning, so no probs in turning a simple pattern into a complicated masterpiece, the colour range has a good choice for both boys and girls which is a refreshing change and the yarn knits up delightfully soft and still looks good after a few trips around the washing machine.
It doesn't take long to dry either.

Takes 3 - 6 balls for the sweater dress

All this at a pretty good price
