I have a graduate degree in mathematics, I want to learn enough QFT to understand whats going on in Wittens paper about QFT and the Jones polynomial. So I need some QFT and maybe Chern-Simons theory. What are good resources to learn whats necessary? I want to understand fully this paper.

I think that a good resource might (just might) be the following book:
Quantum Fields and Strings a Course for Mathematicians. This book emphasizes mathematical rigor and technique. I haven't gone through all of it, but it might have what you're looking for.
