The Ooey Gooey Sweater is designed by Andrea Mowry from Drea Renee Knits. Please note that our kit does not include the pattern. You can purchase the Ooey Gooey pattern via Ravelry.

The inspiration for this sweater began with a beautiful modern rug with undulating curves. Andrea immediately began drawing up some colorwork charts, and loved the organic, bold shape of this yoke. After knitting through the first chart, she was inspired to add some perfectly round polka dots, and the jammy colors and drippy motif just had her thinking “ooey gooey” as she was knitting.

Please note: The pictures of Andrea Mowry show the design in the original recommended yarns.

Yarn Characteristics

Weight: Sport: 150m per 50g /164yds per 50g

Blend: 90% Falklands Corriedale / 10% Mulberry Silk

Falklands Corriedale: This fibre has a good long staple length, is smooth with a hint of lustre and oodles of bounce. The breed is derived from a cross of the Merino sheep and Lincoln Longwool.

Mulberry Silk: This fibre is produced by the Bombyx silk moth. It has the lowest micron count of any natural fibre making it incredibly soft and extremely lustrous. When added to a blend it gives the fibre a phenomenal drape, durability and shine.

Care instructions

Our yarns are steamed after being spun. This makes them bloom. Once your knitted piece is finished, we do recommend wet blocking the piece to the given dimensions. This will set all your stitches and guarantee that your garment looks its best.

Hand-wash only.
