Such a fast knit!
… and as it turned out well times as the weather after teasing us with sun and high temperatures for a couple of week has gone back to ‘bleh’ again.
This was a ‘kit’ from ‘Wool and the gang’ – which you can purchase ‘here‘, if you’re interested. I don’t know if you’ve ever tried them… they’re all very easy projects and come beautiful packaged with full instructions and even a yarn needle to absolutely complete the thing… no excuses!
The yarn for this sweater, jumper, pullover… call it what you wish is wonderful, it’s made using up-cycled, pre-consumer denim waste using no chemicals and no dyes. What’s not to like? It drapes, it’s soft, and it’s eco-friendly. Pretty cool I say. (Although, saying cool is not cool I realise that. Apologies)
5mm and 6.5mm needles, and a good tv series and bob’s your uncle you have a sweater.
(and a slightly out of focus photograph… I love the loose sleeves though…)
Mr M and I are late to the ‘House of Cards’ party but we’re catching up. Highly addictive. And I need Robin Wright’s wardrobe (and her flat stomach).
I’ve also started watching ‘Call the midwife’… oh boy, am I the only one who cries at every episode? Geesh…
And if you’re wondering if I’ve been living in a jungle without access to modern ways of entertainment for the past few years… I don’t know what to say… I guess I haven’t been watching much of anything…
Now I need a cup of tea and need to decide what to knit next….
mmmhhhh
Oooh that jumper is bloody lovely. Almost inspired to go and buy a kit…..if it wasn’t for the xx number of projects already on the go 🙂 And as for Call the Midwife…sniff….right with you there. It properly tugs the heart strings xx

Your sweater is absolutely beautiful! I love the style and color. I am already looking forward to fall and days cool enough to wear a sweater. Here in the Southern USA, it’s already hot and humid and my least favorite time of the year.
