My new project....... |
The pattern in question is this pretty little number from the 1940’s.
I’m very lucky that I have a wool shop less than 2 miles away so last week I headed off to pick up these little lovelies.
I’m like a child in a sweet shop when I’m choosing wool and often take home far more than I went in for!!
Now despite what the pattern tells me to do, I always start on the sleeve – always have and probably always will!! J I like to start this way because it allows me to check my tension and then when it comes to the actual body of the jumper, I can adjust it to fit the customer perfectly.
This lovely jumper is knitted on size 12’s and size 10’s. I cast on the sleeve on Sunday and managed to finish it last night. I’m pleased with how it’s turned out. It looks a little bumpy in the photograph because I haven’t pressed it yet but it will look much better once done.
Will keep you updated with the progress of the jumper!
