So, we all know that I’m a reasonably fast knitter, but a while back I got to thinking – wouldn’t it be great if there was a jumper that could be reasonably finished by the average knitter in a week? For those of us with a short attention span, a tight gift-giving deadline or for beginners who want something achievable and wearable, there didn’t seem to be much out there, so I started swatching and sketching and this is what I came up with.

Three County Highway is knitted flat in four pieces and seamed. It uses a simple mesh pattern, nothing too fussy, so it’s really easy to wear no matter what the weather. The pattern is super easy to follow and memorise, and it knits up unbelievably fast – mine took just under a week from swatching to finished jumper.

So, go get it now! Three County Highway is half price for the first week and as an extra incentive, the first five people to send me a link to their Ravelry project page with finished photos will have the cost of this pattern refunded and can choose any pattern from my Ravelry store for free.

So what are you waiting for? This time next week you could have a new sweater!
