Mossy Jumper
This beautiful jumper is knitted flat from the bottom up and has the most amazing lofty texture; I absolutely love it! The entire project in knitted in moss (seed) stitch on 10mm needles and as the yarn is so chunky it’s super easy to spot if you have gone wrong which is my usual griped with this stitch. The sleeves are knitted onto the sweater to there is no worry about messing the whole project up with poor finishing. Always a relief as finishing definitely isn’t my strong point! I’ve made the design deliberately boxy, but if you want it to be longer that’s not a problem and I’ve noted where you can do that easily.

Washing
Plump Superchunky and Plump DK are made from the highest quality superfine merino and baby alpaca. These really are special and luxurious fibres and should be treated carefully! Having said that both yarns are suitable for delicate hand washing. Use a specialist detergent and do not agitate or twist the fibres to retain the gorgeous softness and shape of your garment.
Shedding
Because of the roving nature of our yarns (they are single ply, rather than tightly twisted), some shedding may occur. The best way to deal with this is spray your finished garment with water and leave to dry flat, naturally before the first wearing. This sets the fibres and should stop any problems.

Using your yarn
All our yarn comes in skeins. Before using you need to wind the skein into a ball or you will get into an awful tangled mess! If you are not sure how to do this you can watch our video here!
