At first glance, you might think there's nothing too serious about this adorable sweater.
Sure, it's got a gorgeous retro feel and that swirl of playful circles around the yoke that are just so fun...
But there's a lot more to Circle Dance than simple whimsy!
It's a beautifully thought out design with...
- flattering shaping through the waist and sleeves
- that lovely shirttail hem detail
- and inclusive sizing from a 33" to 69" bust
And we think it's such a fun design, we've done some special colour combos for it!

This set is perfect for you if:

- you love a closely fitted sweater that shows off your shape
- you're happy working bottom up in the round

This set is not for you if:
- you want your kit to exactly match the samples pictured here -- each set is similar but, because all of the mini skeins are unique, your set will differ from the pictures. And that's all part of the fun!
- you are uncomfortable mixing bases -- the sets incorporate different bases, but they all work together, we promise!
- you're likely to get your bubble gum stuck in your yarn
Very Important Stuff: All hand-dyed yarns can vary between and within dyelots and their true beauty is the individuality in every skein. Please be sure to order enough yarn for your project, to reduce the chance of differences between your skeins. If you'd prefer to reduce any variation in your project, we recommend alternating skeins every two rows in your project. Please remember that our photos are as accurate as possible, but the colours you see also depend on your device's settings.
At SpaceCadet, we passionately believe that knitting and crocheting make people happier deep down inside and that nothing does that more than working with gorgeous, vibrant yarn. For us, dyeing is a cosmic adventure -- a wonderful process of mixing each shade by hand from primaries and seeing where the colour takes us. The result is yarn that is as exciting for you as it is for us. Come with us and explore the farthest reaches of SpaceCadet colour!
