I’m enjoying this knit so much. The pattern is very straightforward to follow and the yarn knits beautifully. I’ve just reached the point where I switch yarn dominance, so I’m intrigued to see how that manifests itself.

I’ve just put this beautiful jumper into hibernation for a bit. It’s so warm, I won’t be able to wear it until Autumn, and I need to rationalise and plan my growing list of WIPs

Out of hibernation. Now to try remember where I got to because I didn’t make any very useful notes.

A year later … I don’t know why I’m dragging my heels with this jumper because I LOVE the colours and design. I’m finally onto the sleeves, knitting them two at a time. I am determined to finally finish it and wear it at least once this year, before it gets too warm!

Blocking today. I have a suspicion it should have been a size smaller, but I’ll be happy to wear it baggy with jeans
