Big Gay Sweater
The Big Gay Sweater is one of the coziest, cheer-giving knits you could imagine! It is a super fast and easy knit and the color changes make you just want to keep going and going! And see, you can have pride even when it is FREEZING! AND see rainbows when it isn’t even close to rainbow weather! We have kits available here which include a FREE download of the pattern!
The Big Gay Sweater pattern will be FREE with the purchase of any two of my other patterns for one week and code FREEGAY. (Add all 3 to your cart before using the code) Ends 1/10/26
