FEELIN’ GOOD

If you feel you’re ready to start crocheting your own clothes, this Hometown Cardigan by Wool and the Gang is a great place to start. Mostly consisting of just two types of stitches, this easy-to-work cardi is made from the company’s own Feeling Good yarn, a light and soft Alpaca and Merino mix. The kit costs between L135 and L158, depending on size. Find it at www.woolandthegang.com
