Thank you Anne for this beautiful test.
I am delighted with the finished piece, and for your patience with my slow progression. It was am absolute joy not to have to rush,but to rather enjoy every chosen stitch hearts

A little about my yarns
Except for my three main colours I knit my sweater entirely from left over balls of yarn, if I ran out of one I merely substituted with the closest next best option. ( I have included pictures of my main colour skeins. The first is planet Claire from Wishboneyarn, the second Silver dust from Miss la Motte yarns and the third a steel grey hand dyed skein from Grenouille Co sparkles)
With the result that this sweater is made entirely of small bits of old favourites and therefore is a real treasure to me.
It is also always such a pleasure to be able to use these bits of yarn in such a gorgeous constructive way.

This is my first time testing for Anne and if I may just say that the care in which this pattern has been written is unmatched. Time has been taken to carefully explain all details and direction, you won’t find yourself wanting in any way.

A real work of magic and such a gift to the knitting community.
